If you want to discover a new species, a museum may be the best location to start searching. https://www.sciencefriday.com/segments/want-to-find-a-new-sp...: “discovering new species in the depths of museum archives is not so uncommon. Dozens of such tales of are told by biologist and author Christopher Kemp in his new book The Lost Species <https://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/022638621X/sciencefriday/>. He describes the treasure hunts and serendipitous finding of species like the ruby seadragon and the olinguito, and why there may be many more discoveries waiting in the backlogged shelves of museums around the world.” |
