Found in Malaysia, it was described as new to science in 2011. It produces sponge-like, rubbery orange fruit bodies that have a fruity or musky odour. The fruit bodies reach dimensions of 10 cm (3.9 in) wide by 7 cm (2.8 in) tall Like a sponge, they will resume their original shape if water is squeezed out. The spores, produced on the surfaces of the hollows of the sponge, are almond-shaped with rough surfaces, and measure 10-12.5 by 6-7 micrometers. The name of the fungus is derived from the cartoon character SpongeBob SquarePants.

There is also a spider named after the Sarlacc, a microorganism named after Cthulhu, the Sauroniops (which literally means “Eye of Sauron”) and many more (http://www.curioustaxonomy.net/etym/fiction.html).

And that is, my friends, why so many future scientists’ dream is to discover a new specie.
