  1. Bryan Lessard:

    I'd been watching a lot of' RuPaul's Drag Race' when I was examining the specimen under the microscope, so it was on my mind ! and I really wanted to give this group of flies a memorable name because it needs the attention -- the first specimen of this RuPaul fly was collected over a hundred years ago and sat neglected in a museum collection until someone with the knowledge of that group came along to name and document them.
