Beyonce inspires scientists to rename rare fly | KGET TV 17

Beyonce inspires scientists to rename rare fly | KGET TV 17: "The creature, which was first discovered in the year of the star's birth, 1981, will now be called Scaptia (Plinthina) Beyonceae.

Scientists claim they decided on the name after the insect's golden hair reminded them of Beyonce."
Bryan Lessard, from Australia's science agency CSIRO, says, "It was the unique dense golden hairs on the fly's abdomen that led me to name this fly in honor of the performer Beyonce as well as giving me the chance to demonstrate the fun side of taxonomy - the naming of species."
