[Taxacom] Amphipod name - true or false

[Michael Reuscher]

What a great name :)

I googled it because I was curious about the validity of the species name, but I did not find a lot. It is not listed in OBIS or any other database, except for zipcodezoo, see link below
http://zipcodezoo.com/Key/Animalia/Polichinellobizarrocomic_Genus.asp
But this entry does not contain describer, citation or any other supplemental info.
But maybe an amphipod specialist can comment on this species.
By the way, I also found a nice page with curiosities in taxonomic names, see link below

It seems that amphipod taxonomists like long names!
If you know more sites with weird species names, I would be interested in getting the links.

cheers, Michael
