Zooarchaeology at the Lake Monroe Outlet Midden (8VO53) By Irvy R. Quitmyer Late in the Pleistocene epoch (ca. 14,000 B.P. – Before Present), Paleoindians entered North America across the Bering Land Bridge from Siberia. They spread across the landscape moving as far south as present day T
Although rare, their use would have added range to the animal portion of the diet

The fourth week of June is National Pollinator Week. What exactly is a pollinator? Why are pollinators important? Why should we celebrate them? Pollination is the transfer of pollen from the male part of a flower, known as an anther, to the female part, or stigma. We don’t give this process much
How plants woo pollinators Flowering plants have developed a vast array of features

Florida Museum of Natural History mammalogist David Reed has received a $900,000 National Science Foundation Faculty Early Career Development Award to study the evolutionary biology of human lice. Reed, an associate curator of mammalogy at the Florida Museum, will use the five-year, $934,498
“Parasitic lice have evolved alongside, but much faster than their human hosts,”

Cetorhinus maximus This slow-moving migratory shark is the second largest fish, growing as long as 40 feet and weighing over 5 tons. It is often sighted swimming close to the surface, huge mouth open, filtering 2,000 tons of seawater per hour over its complicated gills to scoop up zooplankton. Ba
In addition, the decomposing remains of basking shark carcasses have been brought

It’s in your heart and liver, in the vegetables you eat, in the rogue cells that cause cancer. Those who live in temperate regions are surrounded by more of it than people who live in the tropics, and without it, humans wouldn’t exist. It’s called polyploidy, and only within the last few years ha

With just a few clicks of a mouse, you can purchase your very own redtail garra, a type of fish that feeds on algae. Information about the fish’s biology, however, is much less easily obtained. That’s because redtail garra, although popular in the aquarium trade since at least the early 2000s, has u
The locality is isolated and difficult to reach, so wild redtail garras have existed

Hawk moths are known for being some of the largest night fliers in the insect world. With wingspans of more than four inches, many species are big enough to comfortably fill the palm of your hand. Thanks to the work of a small team of researchers at the Florida Museum of Natural History, three new s

For the past year, museum researchers have been digging against the clock.
