President Barack Obama now has a fish to call his own — actually, an entire species. That’s because three scientists have thanked the president for protecting Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument by naming one of the fish species endemic to the area after him.

Obama had expended the monument to included 582,578 square miles and the 7,000 species that call the area home

The fish, which is just 1.5 inches long, was discovered in June in a deep sea reef in Papahānaumokuākea in the Northwest Hawaii Islands.
