[The gypsy moth has been renamed due
to fears that its name could be
viewed as "derogatory".
Scientists from the Entomological
Society of American (ESA) have announced that
the Lymantria dispar moth will now
commonly be known as the ‘Spongy Moth'.
The word 'gypsy' is widely considered a racist slur
towards Romani people,
an Indo-Aryan ethnic group who live in Europe and US,
leading to the name change.]
