The headline reads "An invasive species now has a new name to replace ethnic slur"

(CNN) The scientists who have been working on changing an invasive moth's common name, which included an ethnic slur, have made their decision.

Previously known as "g slur moth," the species Lymantria dispar is now "spongy moth," according to the Entomological Society of America, which makes the Common Names of Insects and Related Organisms List, an essential database for anyone working with insects.

Note: the article contains the actual slur, replaced here as "g slur" in the screenshot.
