Paleontologists reveal the hidden role of eye pigments in vertebrate evolution
Paleontologists at University College Cork have discovered that the evolution of fish is linked to the shape, location and abundance of tiny melanin-rich granules called melanosomes. These features survive in 300-million-year-old…

More seminatural habitats are created. The expectation is simple: give nature more space, and biodiversity will increase.
