Etymology
The species name refers to the type locality.[3]
gollark: Why not?
gollark: "do some biology please"
gollark: Just find a biologist, and say "hello I will give you money if you do biology".
gollark: Ultimately it'll end up being funded by individuals anyway, just indirectly, so you might as well throw money at any biologist you know.
gollark: In that case, throw your money at it, you *can* do that.
