Scientists have identified several new marine species in a pristine underwater ecosystem recently discovered in international waters -- and they expect to find more. Modern technology that allows ...
Researchers also discovered a second new species of jellyfish and documented dozens of others. “Part of the work we are doing is to demonstrate and document the amazing oceanic biodiversity here ...
April 10, 2024 at 3:50 PM. Surrounding the remote island of Miyake, off the east-central coast of Japan, the stoney sea floor matches the volcanic rock on the surface. Scattered across the rocks ...
Humans have explored less than 4% of the ocean floor, and dozens of new species of deep sea creatures are discovered with every dive. The submarine DSV Alvin—owned by the US Navy and operated by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) in Woods Hole, Massachusetts—exemplifies the type of craft used to explore deep water. This 16 ton ...
Tomlinson et al. (2024) reconstruct the range and extinction dynamics of six species of moa, and interpret their findings as indicating that the studied species likely had similar spatial patterns of geographic range collapse, and that their final populations persisted in cold, mountainous areas that continue to function as sanctuaries for New ...
Taxonomic revision of the miomopteran family Permosialidae is published by Aristov & Rasnitsyn (2024). [ 253 ] Cui et al. (2024) describe new fossil material of Aristovia daniili from the Cretaceous amber from Myanmar, and identify Aristovia as a member of the stem group of Grylloblattodea. [ 254 ]
But most animals that light up are found in the depths of the ocean. In a new study, scientists report that deep-sea corals that lived 540 million years ago may have been the first animals to glow ...
A mandible of a probable member of the genus Magericyon, likely representing a new species, is described from the Miocene Linxia Basin by Jiangzuo et al. (2024), expanding known diversity of amphicyonids from eastern Asia. [222] A study on the allometry of the baculum in extant and extinct canids is published by de Latorre & Marshall (2024). [223]
