Amphisbaena elbakyanae is a species of worm lizards found in Colombia.[1]
The species was named in honor of Alexandra Elbakyan as the authors say:
We dedicate this species to the Kazakhstani scientist Alexandra Asanovna Elbakyan, creator of the website Sci-Hub, for her colossal contributions for reducing the barriers in the way of science, as well as her reclamation that “everyone has the right to participate and share in scientific advancement and its benefits, freely and without economic constraints”
