Corporate sponsorship of bird names

As I understand it from the TexBirds archives, Bret Whitney recently (February 1999) donated to the Texas Audubon Society the right to name a new bird he discovered in the Amazon (Brazil). It's an antbird...family Thamnophilus. The Texas Audubon Society will hold an auction, and the winning bidder will be able to name the bird. The proceeds of the auction are to be used for conservation in the US and Brazil. Example (if not appropriate) names might be Bubba's Robin (Turdus bubba) or Green Robin (Turdus virescens) or Two-striped Robin (Turdus bistriatus).

Well, I could not help myself. Imagine if avian taxonomy followed down the path of corporate sponsorship - much like the current college football bowls.
