Recently, Yun Hsiao, Student-Doctorate and BS on Coleopteran Observational Behavior along with biology, evolution and taxonomy of the National Taiwan University, Australian National Universities' E&E division and Australian National Insect Collection, publicly released the finalized nomenclature for three newly-discovered species of the Genera Binburrum (family Pyrochroidae, the fire-colored beetles,) Binburrum articuno, B. zapdos and B. moltres of the Southern Australia and Queensland states. He has officially cited the rarity of the legendary birds as inspiration, given the three species' own extreme scarceness and has been published for reference by Cambridge University under paygate for study purposes and listed under Earthling Nature's new species register for January 2021.
This more than doubles the current number of extant insect species named after a Pokemon, from two to five, and has brought the grand total of species named after Pokemon, living and extinct, from four to seven. This comes a little over two years following the rejected proposition to GameFreak regarding a new species of Fijian lockjaw ant, which would've borrowed from Durant, a Tapu or Satoshi Tajiri himself.
