Sicoderus bautistai
[edit]- ... that the weevil species S. bautistai, described as "black, shiny ants", is named after baseball player José Bautista? Source: "They are very distinctive and look somewhat like black, shiny ants." and "A dramatic home run capped with a “bat-flip” by former Toronto Blue Jays player Jose Bautista has inspired the name for a new species of beetle." (Baseball and beetles: Toronto Blue Jays slugger inspires name of new weevil species)
