Sarah Schroeder, a UC Riverside doctoral student in entomology and lifelong Taylor Swift fan, helped describe 1 new species of Australian plant-feeding insects. She named a new genus Swifiephylus and four species after Taylor Swift and he albums, including Swiftiephylus taylorae, amator, intrepidus, and poetorum. Schroeder was partially inspired by the insects' pale yellow and red coloring, which she compared to Swift's blonde hair and red lips, as well as by her desire to honor an artist whose music has accompanied her throughout her life. The insects were collected in Australia decades ago. and Schroeder examined 593 specimens using traditional taxonomy and genomic data to study their evolution and relationships with their host plants. Most importantly, Schroeder hopes the unusual Tylor Swift connection will draw attention to insect diversity and conservation, emphasizing that taxonomy is essential because species cannot be protected if scientists do not first identify and describe them.
