Trivia

Design origin

Hydranticus is based on a Glaucus atlanticus, a nudibranch that feeds on venomous jellyfish (such as the Portuguese man o' war) and stores their stinging cells in its finger-like cerata for its own self-defense. Its ability to glide over the ocean's surface as though flying is similar to the behavior of Mobula rays or flying fish.

Name origin

Hydranticus's name is a combination of hydro, from the Greek word for water, and atlanticus.
