Euglossa bazinga
''Euglossa bazinga'' is a euglossine bee species found in Brazil. It is named after the catchphrase of the fictional character Dr. Sheldon Cooper from the television show ''The Big Bang Theory''. It was previously misidentified as ''Euglossa ignita'',〔Smith, 1874〕 and is threatened with habitat loss.
==Taxonomy and naming==
''Euglossa bazinga'' is one of around 130 species currently identified within the orchid bee genus ''Euglossa''. ''E. bazinga'' had previously been misidentified as ''Euglossa ignita'' Smith, 1874. Brazilian biologists André Nemésio of the Universidade Federal de Uberlândia and Rafael R. Ferrari of the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais identified the species as distinct, with his findings published in the December 2012 issue of the journal ''Zootaxa''. The authors named the species in honor of the catchphrase of the character Sheldon Cooper, played by actor Jim Parsons, from the television show ''The Big Bang Theory''.〔 Nemésio said of the name, "Sheldon Cooper's favorite comic word 'bazinga', used by him when tricking somebody, was here chosen to represent the character. ''Euglossa bazinga'' has tricked us for some time due to its similarity to ''E. ignita'', what led us to use 'bazinga'." Incidentally, the character is allergic to bees.
