Tonight's Top Ten ....

Or, perhaps, this year's Top Ten. The Arizona State University International Institute for Species Epxloration has released its annual Top Ten New Species list, including the astounding, orb-spinning Darwin's Bark Spider, a couple of mushroom species, a creepy looking leech, and a remarkably ugly fish, among others.


Eating the Titanic: Holomonas titanicae—"ESEM showing stacked mineralized
individual bacterium in the form of a stalagmite shape occurring inside a rusticle."

Enjoy.
