You know the trend. People choose unique names for their children. If you are looking for a positively matchless name for your next kid, you might want to take a look into the world of insects. Some of their names are downright distinctive.
Calponia harrisonfordi:
Even though spiders are not technically insects, this is one spider that would make Harrison Ford proud. An arachnologist (someone who studies spiders and only spiders) named the arachnid in thanks to Harrison Ford for narrating a documentary for the Natural History Museum in London. Next time you’re in England be ready.
Tawny Crazy ant:
Bombardier beetle:
Vampire moth:
If you are backpacking in Southern Europe, you might run into this surprising insect. Vampire moths love drinking the blood of vertebrates, and guess what you are a vertebrate. Equipped with a long needle-like mouth, it can easy penetrate your skin and get its fill.
Aha ha:
Toe Bitter:
Tongue-eating Louse:
The name is disgusting, and so is the critter. The Tongue-eating louse is not an insect; it is a crustacean with a love for tongues, fish tongues. It eats the tongue of fish and then becomes the new tongue. Imagine having a crustacean as your tongue and you may begin to understand what a fish goes through.
