A new species of moth that resembles President-elect Donald Trump has been discovered in California. The moth has 鈥測ellowish blonde scales covering the head鈥� and has been named 'Neopala Donaltrumpi' after the next President of the United States.

Biologist Dr Vazrick Nazari was the man who made the discovery after an analysis of a collection of moths from the Museum of Entomology, at the University of California.

He told 5 live the moth is 鈥渂arely a centimetre wide in wing span so it鈥檚 a tiny moth. It seems to be very rare.鈥�

He also says he hopes the President-elect 鈥渢akes it with the good intention it was intended.鈥�

Trump is not the only president to have an animal named after them after Barak Obama had a fish called 'Tosanoides Obama' named after him last year鈥�
