Etymology

The genus name Eeyorius is derived from the character Eeyore from A. A. Milne's Winnie the Pooh stories because Eeyore "lived in damp places". The species epithet honors J. Barry Hutchins, an ichthyologist with the Western Australian Museum.[1]

gollark: ... no.
gollark: You can't escape it that way.
