No. I'm not sure which authority made the original decision (maybe the 
little-known CCIV, or 204 committee), quite a long time ago, but insects have 
antennae and radios have antennas. Being it was a long time ago, the 
possibility of insects with radios was not taken into account.

Soon we’ll have ants with antennae and antennas.

I’ve put an inquiry in to the entomology department at the University of 
Guelph, Canada’s preeminent agricultural university. If anyone is likely to 
have an expert on this topic, U of G will. I’ll let you know if I hear anything 
interesting back!
