Call me Colymbo

I wish more articles contained the following:

The five millimetre long crustacean, discovered by UK and US researchers, has been named Colymbosathon ecplecticos - derived from the Greek for "astounding swimmer with a large penis".

And this one:

The method revealed long extremities probably used for swimming, a pair of compound eyes, as well as the creature's big phallus.

Or this:

The creature possesses a hard shell, an organ for grabbing prey, six gills, as well as a "copulatory organ [that] is large and stout", says the team.

Fortunately, this one does.
