Not really sure what section this should go in so this seems as good a place as any: New Genus of Ferns Named for Lady Gaga | Biology | Sci-News.com
Mozart: Bishopina mozarti (crustacean-y shrimpy thing) Mozart: Mozartella beethoveni (wasp) Chopin: Fernandocrambus chopinellus (moth) There's also a fly named after Beyonce because it has a shiny butt.
LOL. this is so amusing.. nerd-gasming, brb. and i just submit my homework on genetic analysis and how it affects taxonomy, hahahaha.
If you really want to delve deeper into amusing taxonomic nomenclature (probably not a phrase that's used often) then this website might be an interesting place to hunt around: Curiosities of Biological Nomenclature Including a trilobite named Han solo: Han solo (trilobite) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia And a fly named after Beyonce - The Beyonce fly: Researchers name insect with golden behind after singer - Telegraph
Even though I'm not a Lady Gage fan, I am a science girl- and I think this is one of the funniest things I've heard in quite a while.
