Trivia
- A Triboniophorus Tyrannus that has been gift wrapped will appear as a "Pyro Brain Sucker" on the description of the Carefully Wrapped Gift.
- The Triboniophorus Tyrannus is a reference to the brain slugs that appear on the animated science fiction sitcom, Template:W. Brain Slugs attach themselves to an individual's head, and control their mind, forcing them in to a semi-comatose state. While under the influence of a Brain Slug, the possessed individual will speak in a monotonous tone, and do anything to spread the Brain Slug infection to other individuals. However, the Brain Slugs on Futurama somewhat differ in design, having one large eye instead of two small eyes. Brain Slugs have two antennae as well.
- The Template:W is a type of green slug native to Australia.
- Triboniophorus Tyrannus roughly translates to "Slug King" in Latin.
