}}Agra schwarzeneggeri is a species of carabid beetle named after the actor Arnold Schwarzenegger. The holotype was collected in Costa Rica and first described to science in 2002.[1]

Etymology

The binomial nomenclature references Schwarzenegger, because of the markedly developed '(biceps-like)' middle femora of the males.[1] Erwin later remarked in an interview that his students had prepared an image of A. schwarzeneggeri and sent it out to Schwarzenegger himself: he signed it "Thanks for thinking of me - Arnold" and returned it.

Other species in the genus named by Terry L. Erwin include Agra liv, named after Liv Tyler, and Agra katewinsletae, named after Kate Winslet.[2]
