Chrono-Eric, a spanner is what Brits and some of their former colonials call what I and probably most folks in the US call a wrench. Google images offers a bunch of pictures. Wrench - it's not just a verb!

Maybe he is refered to as "The Marine Biologists that studies octos"
When a profession is not that widely known, no one will give it a proper name.

A person who studies molluscs is a malacologist, a person who studies cephs (any variety as far as I'm aware) is a teuthologist.
Me when I'm asked I say I'm a Marine Biologist (cos not too many people seem to know the other words!) course then I get asked do I study dolphins/sharks/whales/coral.............
