Mammals are a bit odd when it comes to bones. Rather than the bony plates and scales of crocodiles, turtles, lizards, dinosaurs and fish, mammals long ago traded in their ancestral suit of armor for a layer of insulating hair. Armadillos, with their protective and flexible shell of imbricated bon
maintain a colony of these rare creatures for research,” said Maden, a biology professor

The mysterious appearance of numerous ancient duck bones dating to the sixth century at the Pineland archaeological site on Pine Island in southwest Florida was the first clue to one Museum researcher’s new understanding of the state’s environmental history. Karen Walker, assistant scientist of s

Researchers at the Florida Museum of Natural History and collaborating institutions have been collectively awarded $2,837,441 in funding from the National Science Foundation this month. Awards were distributed to faculty members in archaeology, vertebrate paleontology, Lepidoptera, biodiversity info

An analysis of more than 70,000 fossils indicates that mollusk communities were incredibly resilient to major climatic shifts during the last ice age. Scientists from the Florida Museum of Natural History and several European research institutions tracked the history of Adriatic ecosystems throug
, it’s probably because of us,” said lead author Daniele Scarponi, an associate professor

Humans and other primates are outliers among mammals for having nails instead of claws. But how, when and why we transitioned from claws to nails has been an evolutionary head-scratcher. Now, new fossil evidence shows that ancient primates – including one of the oldest known, Teilhardina brandti
removing pests would be an evolutionary advantage, said Doug Boyer, an associate professor

University of Florida researchers have found rat lungworm, a parasitic nematode that can cause meningitis in humans and animals, in five Florida counties. Rats and snails in Alachua, Leon, St. Johns, Orange and Hillsborough counties tested positive for the parasite, according to a study in PLoS O

A 3-inch, monogamous, hermaphrodite proves the saying “there’s plenty more fish in the sea” isn’t always the case. For the tiny fish found in the coral reefs off Panama, a lifelong relationship with its partner doesn’t come without some give and take. In fact, the faithful pair owe their evolutiona

Doug and Pam Soltis of the Florida Museum of Natural History were recognized last month as being in the top 1% of highly cited researchers. This year’s list, which was curated and published by the analytical organization Clarivate, lauded researchers from around the world whose work has significantl

The results of a yearlong science program show that one of the best ways to instill a lasting interest in science among children is to engage them alongside their family members. This finding runs counter to the current framework, in which children attend science-related summer camps and after-schoo
