Today is Swedish environmental activist Greta Thunberg’s birthday! Of minor interest is that one of her middle names is Tintin, but much more importantly a freshwater snail discovered in 2016 by the two researchers on New Zealand’s South Island was named after her – Opacuincola gretathunbergae!

I’d like a snail named after me, please. Caenogastropoda Snailoftheweekae has a nice ring to it.

Enjoy your day everyone, take care of yourselves!
