Beyonce’s Booty Gets Her a Fly Named After Her

A newly discovered horse fly in Australia was so “bootylicious” with its golden-haired bottom, that researcher, Bryan Lessard, chose to name the insect after Beyoncé.

Lessard says he wanted to pay respect to the insect’s beauty by naming it Scaptia (Plinthina) beyonceae. Lessard said Beyoncé would be “in the nature history books forever” and that the fly now bearing her name is “pretty bootylicious” with its golden backside.

The fly was captured in 1981, the same year Beyonce was born.

The description of the fly was earlier published in the Australian Journal of Entomology, but the results were announced last week.

Lessard says he hasn’t heard from Beyoncé, but he is a fan and hopes she will take his scientific gesture as a compliment. He also said the name was picked to help draw attention to the importance of his field and the need for more researchers to catalog and study insects.
