新研究将 3.3 亿年前的章鱼化石命名为「拜登」，这一发现具有哪些意义？ 第1页

我恶趣味地认为是因为他俩都能喷……

不过实际原因人家在文章中已经写了：

The genus name is derived from the Greek συλλήψιμος (syllípsimos) for prehensile and πόδι (pódi) for foot. The name prehensile-foot is chosen because this is the oldest known cephalopod to develop suckers, allowing the arms, which are modifications of the molluscan foot, to better grasp prey and other objects. The species name is to celebrate the recently inaugurated (at the time of submission) 46th President of the United States, Joseph R. Biden.

就是说文章提交的时候是拜登刚就职，这个种加词就是庆祝他当选，不过也隔了一年多，足以看出审稿流程有多长了。

至于作者和拜登有没有什么关系我就晓不得了，或许Congyu老师有什么内部信息可以爆料一下？

艾特一下试试
