"Carlsberg-Inspired Beetle: New Species Named for Bottle-Opener Shaped Genitalia"

Scientists have discovered a new species of beetle in South America with male genitalia shaped like a bottle opener, leading to its name, Loncovilius carlsbergi. The researchers plan to manufacture a small bottle-opening keychain based on the beetle's sexual organs. The species is one of six new Loncovilius beetles described in a study funded by the Carlsberg Foundation. These beetles, which live in Chile and Argentina, are unique in their family as they live on flowers instead of the ground. Unfortunately, climate change threatens their population. The researchers hope that by immortalizing the Carlsberg beetle as a bottle opener, they can raise awareness about the crisis facing species on our planet.
