Last summer, the University of Florida and Florida State University set aside their longstanding rivalry to offer students a unique opportunity – a sharks field course. For two weeks, 10 undergraduate and graduate students roared across the Gulf of Mexico by day and bunked at research stations by

Nine new species of carnivorous land snails have been found in the remote forests of Papua New Guinea, a biodiversity hot spot. A new study describes the species, which are so small that all nine could fit together on a U.S. nickel. They present a rare opportunity to study a group that in many other
specimens he collected had not been described anywhere else

As the Field Museum’s chief curiosity correspondent, Emily Graslie has plunged elbow-deep into wolf guts, dug up 52-million-year-old fish fossils and unpacked species classification using candy as stand-ins. Graslie gives the public behind-the-scenes access to natural history collections via her
Nothing else looks like it,” he said.

Early in May 2023, a small team of marine biologists arrived in the Saudi Arabian city of Jeddah. They’d flown into the local airport from Guam, the United States, Portugal, Spain and Japan, and they’d soon rendezvous with colleagues from the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST

In a new study, biologists laid to rest a century-old debate by confirming that a single species of frog, out of the more than 7,000 living today, has true teeth on its lower jaw. The culprit, a large marsupial frog named Gastrotheca guentheri, has puzzled scientists since its discovery in 1882 for
