    Here it is! I've spent the last two months (!!) badgering, corralling & nagging the scientists to find out how many new species they've described this year, because apparently noone keeps a record 🤷🏻‍♂️ And the answer? An amazing 412! 🥳🌿🦕🦈🦀

    Incredible. Think of all of those videos with dogs who have long sticks in their mouths and can't figure out to turn them sideways to go between two posts. Well, what of male moose that have to travel through the forest with massive antlers? Here is the answer.

    Spider (Ambia instrumentalis, Musotiminae, Crambidae) Some Musotimine species have wing markings consistent in size and habitat (undersides of leaves) with Salticidae jumping spiders (inset).

    Got your Christmas cards out in time? Thankfully, they probably won't take as much effort as these festive microfossils, sent between scientists in the early 1900s. Each arrangement, mounted on a microscope slide, measures just 1 centimetre across 🔬

    The EU member states should grant UK citizens living in Europe the full rights as they have today. Automatically. No ‘ifs and buts’ here either. Let's also come back to the idea of ‘European associated citizenship’ for UK citizens who want to keep their link with Europe.

    Congrats to and team for their paper in this week, answering the question on all our minds: why are whales not EVEN BIGGER? A colossal amount of data went into this study, and the results are fascinating!

    Fabulous illustration showing feeding methods of whales and dolphins, and how filter feeders such as right whales and blue whales have far greater feeding efficiency than one-prey-at-a-time feeders like dolphins, beaked whales, and sperm whales

    “Blue whales and sperm whales are not just kind of big. They are among the biggest animals ever to have evolved. They rival and, in some cases, exceed the heaviest dinosaurs. That’s pretty spectacular. But why aren’t they bigger?” - [📸: E. Hazen, NOAA]

    When a blue whale dives, its heart can slow to just two beats per minute. I wrote this piece so that, at normal reading speeds, one such beat would fall at the end of every paragraph.

    A real beauty this , Mystacodon selenensis, a very early toothed mysticete from the late Eocene of Perú. An honour to see and scan the real deal! Mouse for scale. 🐋🐋
