The genus '' | The genus ''cephalus'' may possibly refer to {{w|Cephalus|one of many Greek figures}} sharing the same name. The genus ''durotesta''' has the prefix "duro-", similar to the term "durable" meaning hard to damage, and the suffix "-testa", which is Latin for "head". So the genus could mean "durable head", an accurate description of how Crushblat members have hard shells surrounding their heads. | ||
