Birds are the most diverse land vertebrate on the planet, and now scientists have constructed a complete evolutionary tree of the 11,000 or so known species. This data came from hundreds of studies ...

Scientists identified 24 new amphipod species in the Pacific’s Clarion-Clipperton Zone — including an entirely new branch of crustacean life
Somewhere on the dark, silty floor of the central Pacific, more than four kilometers below the surface, a tiny crustacean was ...

Dozens of deep-sea species just surfaced from the Pacific’s Clarion-Clipperton Zone — including 24 new crustaceans and a rare entirely new branch of life
Somewhere between Hawaii and Mexico, more than four kilometers below the surface of the Pacific Ocean, the seafloor is ...
Human-induced climate change and environmental degradation is causing entire genera to go extinct at rates 35 times higher than what’s been estimated to have occurred in the past one million years. A ...
All species on Earth, both living and extinct, are related. We know this because of a biological tool called the tree of life. This "tree" takes the form of a diagram that maps the relationships ...
A new study unveils the most comprehensive understanding of the evolutionary history of flowering plants to date. The research analyzed 1.8 billion letters of genetic code from more than 9,500 species ...
The Cornell Lab of Ornithology today announced the release of a new online tool for studying biodiversity and the evolutionary relationships among birds: the illustrated Birds of the World Phylogeny ...
The reason why so many tree species can coexist in species-rich forests has long been a subject of debate in ecology. This question is key to understanding the mechanisms governing the dynamics and ...
In this week's Science for All newsletter, Divya Gandhi explains a study that documents the evolutionary history of flowering ...
