In the talk page: "Right now, the article says, Its species name was made a dedication to the Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler. The genus name means blind. The dedication did not go unnoticed by the Führer, who sent Sheibel a letter, showing his gratitude. "Blind Hitler" doesn't sound like a dedication, more like an insult. Was anybody unaware of this at that time or simply didn't care? --Revth 05:03, 15 June 2006 (UTC) The part of the name meaning 'blind' is the genus name, it was already there when Schiebel discovered the beetle and he couldn't really do much more than just group it into that category, even less so renaming an already existing, and descriptive name like Anophthalmus. -Obli (Talk)? 10:27, 15 June 2006 (UTC)" At first part of me thought a name-change might be appropriate. But I'm okay with calling this beetle a "Blind Hitler" even if the prejorative wasn't the entomologist's intention.
