    A species name, once assigned and approved, generally cannot be changed except in the case of an error. For example, a species of beetle was named after Adolf Hitler in 1933 shortly after he became chancellor of Germany, though dedicating a species name to Hitler would likely be unacceptable today. However, the name for that beetle species remains the same.

    Once a species name has been assigned and approved, it can generally not be changed except in

    the case of error. For example, a species of beetle (​Anophthalmus hitleri​) was named by a German
    collector after ​Adolf Hitler​ in 1933 when he had recently become chancellor of Germany.​[4]​ It is not
    clear whether such a dedication would be considered acceptable or appropriate today, but the name
    remains in use.​[4]
