Study Sheds New Light on Fundamental
Question in Evolutionary Biology
Three adventure-seekers meet in the clouds, each with their own reasons to learn more about mysterious jewel-like bees.
These ghostly larvae float freely in seawater, while their parents live on the sea floor and usually go undetected. Genetic studies of larvae provide clues that there are more species to be discovered
The Panamanian scientist Carlos De Gracia discovered the largest known marlin fossil, helped improve the classification of these ancient species and now seeks to understand how the fish of millions of years ago reacted to changes in the ocean similar to those we are experiencing today
