Another view. From the Telegraph
"Bowie was apparently selected for the honour because of his musical contribution to arachnid world - the 1972 concept album The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. Peter Jaeger, the German spider expert who discovered the Heteropoda davidbowie, said that naming spiders after celebrities helped draw attention to the marginal status of many species as human activity destroys their habitats."
