The scientific name for the Loch Ness Monster, "Nessiteras rhombopteryx," was coined by the British scientist Neil Gemmell in 2018. The name was meant to reflect the creature's supposed characteristics and provide a formal classification, although it was more of a playful attempt rather than a serious scientific designation. The name itself is derived from "Ness," for Loch Ness, and "rhombopteryx," which hints at a diamond-shaped fin. Despite this, the Loch Ness Monster remains a cryptid, with no conclusive evidence of its existence.
