I found these on further searches:

Humphrey visual field exam

This is not an ESL dictator but I just bet "tularakian" and "motalakian" are some forms of the above visual field testing names that he has said so often that he just runs it all together. The dictation is gone now but I've bookmarked the above, maybe they will help someone else who gets this same strange-sounding garble. Thanks!
