Lady Gaga is known for her eye-catching style. So when Brendan Morris, a Ph.D. student at the University of Illinois, discovered a new flamboyant-looking insect, he knew he had to name it after the pop singer. Meet the Kaikaia gaga, a red and dark-purple species of treehopper from Nicaragua. Treehoppers—so named because they’re often found on trees—are one of the most diverse groups of insects on the planet, and many of them sport odd-looking bumps, antlers, and colors. “If there is going to be a Lady Gaga bug, it’s going to be a treehopper, because they’ve got these crazy horns, they have this wacky fashion sense about them,” Morris says. “They’re unlike anything you’ve ever seen before.” The singer hasn’t weighed in on the announcement yet, but Morris hopes she appreciates the name—and that the comparison ultimately helps treehoppers become more well-known.
