Deep-sea marvels: How anglerfish defy evolutionary expectations
A Rice University study sheds light on the extraordinary evolution of anglerfish, a group of deep-sea dwellers whose bizarre adaptations have captivated scientists and the public alike. The research, published in Nature Ecology & Evolution, uncovers.....»»
Researchers finally identify the ocean’s “mystery mollusk”
It's a nudibranch, but so distantly related that it gets its own phylogenetic family. Some of the most bizarre lifeforms on Earth lurk in the deeper realms of the ocean. There was.....»»
Biomolecules under deep Earth conditions help refine primordial soup theory for possible origins of life
