==Trivia==
*[[Crayzee]]
* A [[Wikipedia:Common yabby|yabby]] is a species of freshwater crayfish that is native to eastern Australia. The word comes from the term for freshwater crayfish that is used in several Aboriginal Australian languages.
* Yabby shares a name {{translation|'''Ebira'''|エビラ}} in Japanese with the kaiju monster Ebirah, a giant crustacean monster which is featured in the 1966 film ''[[Wikipedia:Ebirah, Horror of the Deep|Ebirah, Horror of the Deep]]''. It was released in the United States in 1968 under the name ''Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster''. The word {{translation|''ebi''|エビ}} is used for any long-tailed crustacean or arthropod such as crayfishes, lobsters, shrimps, or prawn.
