atleticana
The specific epithet is in honour of the glorious Clube Atlético
Mineiro, one of the most important football
(soccer) Brazilian teams, which celebrated its centenary in 2008. Clube Atlético
Mineiro, often known only as “Atlético”
or simply as “Galo” (alluding to its symbol, a rooster), is considered to
have the most fanatic legion of football fans
in Brazil, which exceeds 6,000,000 people. The striped pattern of El.
atleticana’s metasoma
resembles the striped black and
white official t-shirt used by Atlético’s players.
