A new insect named after the singer Lady Gaga

Scientists decided to name the recently discovered insect after Lady Gaga due to "an impression of wacky style," the NME weekly reported.

To support his research project, Dr. Brendan Morris of the University of Illinois ( USA ) tracked the behavior of about a thousand beetles. He pays special attention to one female that has a different trait from the other, NME said.

In the scientific publication Zootaxa, Dr. Morris and co-author - entomologist Christopher Dietrich - described the bizarre bug as characterized by "a prominent m-cu cross (between the longitudinal veins). fourth and fifth) in the front wing, as well as the forehead which is raised like a rivet. "

Later, Dr. Morris decided to name the insect Kaikaia Gaga, so that experts could imagine what kind of insect this was.

Dr. Morris explained that: 'If there was a ladybaga' Lady Gaga 'to appear, it would surely be an insanely horny and eccentric insect. They are unlike anything you've ever seen before. '

Although unable to extract DNA from this creature, Dr. Morris now plans to visit Nicaragua in hopes of finding another Kaikaia Gaga in the rainforest where the first primitive species was collected.
