- The Megalara garuda is a species of large wasp. It was discovered in 2011 on the Mekongga Mountains, in the southeastern part of the Indonesian island of Sulawesi.

- Megalara Garuda's jacket features an illustration of the male of the species stylized to be made of mechanical components.
- According to SYUNN in jubeat Qubell's booklet comments, Megalara Garuda's title was chosen because he started composing music in the same year the wasp species was discovered.
