People and Variety both report that newly discovered plant-eating insects have been named after Taylor Swift. The duplicate coverage in these outlets is centered on the same general development: insect species tied to Swift’s name.
The headlines and excerpts provided do not list the species names, the researchers involved, or the discovery locations. They also do not specify the rationale for naming. As a result, the only supported takeaway here is that multiple publishers say newly found plant-eating insects received names referencing Taylor Swift.
