Those pink iguanas are gorgeous! I'm surprised no one was interested in investigating them.

They look so otherworldly. What an awesome animal

Me too! But the thing about scientific research is that you can only study what people will fund you to study, and it can take years to find the right people to fund specific research.

Attenborough covered them in his galapagos documentary

Probably because for most people who grew up around them they are no different then a seagull. Unless you have a specialized interest you wouldn't even care. For example i have like 5 species of crow on my farm. Nobody even knows we have more then one type in my entire country.

I'd like to mention the atlantic forest boa (Boa atlantica), which has been described earlier this year in 2024. It occurs in some of the most heavily populated areas in Brazil, and several individuals had been collected over the centuries, but the subtle differences between them and Boa constrictor had gone unnoticed for a long time

Both calls of the Atlantic Coastal and Southern Leopard Frogs are rendered as [Laughter] by the KZbin auto-c(r)aptions, so that won't help me in IDing them at all!

Loved this! It's a prime example of why re-examining ecosystems and biomes we think we know and looking at the data with fresh eyes is important. And why museums, universities and other institutions need to open their old drawers and cabinets, as something interesting we missed long ago may be in there. Species are living right under our noses, including in our major cities. Most (but not all) are smaller and look enough like known species that they flew under our radar. Great work!

So glad I found you! Thank you!!! I listen to your playlists at night and it’s perfect. P.S. thank you so much for being a KZbinr that uses leveling! Some channels scare the creep out of me at 4 am! Keep on with your dream.

Those pink iguanas are beautiful. Hope they manage to breed them a lot. There needs to be more of them.

The pink iguana looks kinda more similar to the marine iguana than the other two do- the marine even has a little pink under the dark body tone. I wonder if adaptation to cold temperatures occurred first in the high elevation iguana population.

I've lived in St. Albert, Alberta, Canada for almost 62 years. The Sturgeon River running through town used to be teaming with life. Still see various animals, ie: mammals, birds, amphibians, insects, crustaceans, etc. Present day diversity pales in comparison to the past. Remember seeing massive swarms of small green shrimp like animals swimming near the shores. To this day, I don't know what they were. Unfortunately a lot of species seem to be disappearing from under our noses here. Most people are indifferent to the fact. Makes me angry to see, what should be left as a wildlife corridor turn into a medium for developers to line their pockets, with the consent of local politicians.

This reminds me of a news article about the fact that apparently Australians had been eating a species of fish unknown to science, really interesting how things can be hidden in plain sight

The frog doesn't suprise me much. Frogs tend to have a lot of kleptons, i.e. hybrids maintaining themselves in parent populations. There should be some in the Lithobathes genus. See for example the clusterfuck that is the genus Pelophylax in Europe, there are a few kleptons intertwined in parent populations, sometime having overlapping ecological niches ans identification in the field is often excessively complex.

Lot of new species are being discovered in the SE US now because people are starting to pay more attejtion to differences in populations of many plant species. Many of these are currently undescribed, or very rare. such as the eastern population of Quercus acerifolia. The western population, acerifolia proper, has only about 600 individials remaining. Q. boyntonii and Q. georgiana both have around 200 individuals remaining. A lot of these undescribed species are rare and declining due to fire suppression and habitat alteration. Outside of the botanical realm, recently a lot of new desmognathus species were described through genetic evidence across the southern appalachians.
