New crab species honors Harry Potter
A recently discovered crab species has been somewhat
tenuously named in honor of characters from the magical
world of Harry Potter.
The crab’s official name is Harryplax severus, with the
genus Harryplax named after the crab’s collector, the late
researcher and former marine Harry Conley, who died from a
gunshot in 2002, as well as the protagonist in J. K. Rowling’s
novels. Conley dug up many specimens in Guam’s coral reef
rubble almost 20 years ago.
The latter species part of its name is inspired by the
character Severus Snape, who “despite being a central
character in the series, keeps his background and agenda
mysterious until the very end,” the statement announcing the
naming said. The authors note this is “just like the present
new species, which has eluded discovery until now, nearly 20
years after it was first collected”.
Even though Conley found the specimen long ago, its
status as a new species and genus was only realized recently
by Dr Peter Ng and Dr Jose Cristopher E. Mendoza from the
National University of Singapore.
The crab is tiny, measuring just 7.9 by 5.6 millimeters (0.3
by 0.2 inches), and known only to herald from the island of
Guam. It’s found deep in coral rubble or under subtidal rocks,
and survives at dark depths with reduced eyes, ones that are
not used extensively. Instead, it has antennae to probe the
depths, and gets around on long thin legs.
In the statement, Dr Mendoza was said to be a
self-confessed “Potterhead”, hence the somewhat unusual
moniker. But it’s not the first time Potter has inspired the
naming of a new species – The magazine Popular Science
notes that a dinosaur species was named after Hogwarts in
2006 (Dracorex hogwartsia), a wasp in Thailand was named
Ampulex dementor in 2014, and a spider was named Eriovixia
gryffindori last year.

'Post-truth' named word of the year by Oxford Dictionaries
In the era of Donald Trump and Brexit, Oxford Dictionaries has declared “post-truth” to be its international word of the year.
Defined by the dictionary as an adjective “relating to or denoting circumstances in which objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than appeals to emotion and personal belief”, editors said that use of the term “post-truth” had increased by around 2,000% in 2016 compared to last year. The spike in usage, it said, is “in the context of the EU referendum in the United Kingdom and the presidential election in the United States”.
Contenders for the title had included the noun “alt-right”, shortened from the fuller form “alternative right” and defined as “an ideological grouping associated with extreme conservative or reactionary viewpoints, characterised by a rejection of mainstream politics and by the use of online media to disseminate deliberately controversial content”. First used in 2008, its use “surged” this spring and summer, said the dictionary, with 30% of usage in August alone.
But the increase in usage of post-truth saw the term eventually emerge ahead of the pack. “We first saw the frequency really spike this year in June with buzz over the Brexit vote and Donald Trump securing the Republican presidential nomination. Given that usage of the term hasn’t shown any signs of slowing down, I wouldn’t be surprised if post-truth becomes one of the defining words of our time,” predicted Oxford Dictionaries president Casper Grathwohl.
“It’s not surprising that our choice reflects a year dominated by highly-charged political and social discourse. Fuelled by the rise of social media as a news source and a growing distrust of facts offered up by the establishment, post-truth as a concept has been finding its linguistic footing for some time.”
