Ramisyllis multicaudata and its close relative Ramisyllis kingghidorahi both have a whole lot of name for being fairly small, slender worms.
Their genus name ‘Ramisyllis’ comes from the Latin word for branch, ramus, combined with the word ‘Syllis’ which is the name of another genus of worms that they’re related to and the name of a nymph from Greek mythology. The species name ‘multicaudata’ comes from the Latin word for many, multus, and the word for tailed, caudata. ‘Kingghidorahi’ comes from the three-headed, two-tailed enemy of Godilla that branches and can regenerate, King Ghidorah.
