NOVOFLY
Pending · Under Examination LIVE/APPLICATION/Under Examination
What this record means
The record shows a live, pending application for the mark NOVOFLY owned by the United States Department of Agriculture, filed on Jan 30 2026 and currently under examination in the Principal Register; the most recent activity is the applicant’s response to a non‑final Office action entered on Aug 27 2026. The application covers “Live animals‑ namely live bioengineered and genetically‑engineered New World Screwworm Flies” in International Class 031, so a similar name used for any other type of product would be farther from the scope shown here, while a name used for comparable bioengineered insects would present the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word NOVOFLY, only over the specific live‑fly goods listed. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations appear in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to market a related bioengineered insect under a similar name.
