Have you heard about the "Bazinga Bee"?

Asked by Strauss (23635points) January 4th, 2013

A Brazilian biologist named a species of Brazilian orchid bee Euglossa bazinga in honor of Dr. Sheldon Cooper, a character on the sitcom “Big Bang Theory”.

Do you know of any other scientific discoveries named after pop culture figures or events?
