The Neopalpa donaldtrumpi is a wee little creature found in parts of California and Baja, Mexico.

One of its most identifiable features, though, is its very small genitalia. Evolutionary biologist Vazrick Nazari said the creature’s genitals are “comparatively smaller” than that of the Neopalpa neonata, its close relative. Naturally Mr Nazari sought to name it after the president elect. It’s to now be known as Neopalpa donaldtrumpi. Or just “donaldtrumpi” for short. And if you want to find a donaldtrumpi, well it lives in Mexico, or you can find some in California. Let’s hope that wall doesn’t keep all the donaldtrumpi out.
