There's a genus of crab named after Scylla. (This is why Scylla never eats crab cakes.)

In an episode of Prison Break, Scylla shows up and eats a bunch on inmates. (JK! There is an episode named after the sea monster, though.)

If you ever hear somebody say, "I'm caught between Scylla and Charybdis," it means they're caught between two really bad things. Yeah, it's kind of like being stuck between "a rock and a hard place."

Scilla is the name of a town in Italy where legend says that Scylla used to hang out and eat passing sailors. Apparently, the sea monster has found somewhere else to chill, though, because the town is now super popular with tourists.

155 Scylla is the name of an asteroid out there whirling around space. (Maybe that's where Scylla went for weekend get-aways.)

Glaucus is a genus of squishy, blue sea slugs. (Scylla thinks it's very appropriate that he had slugs named after him.)

The USS Glaucus was the name of a Union steam ship during the American Civil War.
