"August 9, 2005—You're a good man, Microcebus lehilahytsara—quite literally. The German and Madagascan scientists who discovered the new lemur species named it for U.S. lemur expert Steve Goodman ("lehilahytsara" is Malagasy for "good man"). They announced the discovery of this and another new lemur species (not pictured) today."
soooo cuuuute.
I like that; instead of "Microcebus goodman", they went a neat route.
