What is Environmental Archaeology? Environmental archaeology is the interdisciplinary study of past human interactions with the natural world – a world that encompasses plants, animals, and landscapes. We seek to reconstruct ancient environments associated with archaeological sites and the use of p

Hickory horned devils look fierce, but they’re just the caterpillar stage of a beautiful moth. A few weeks ago, a Florida Museum visitor brought this one to us because she found it in her backyard and wasn’t sure what to do with it. After one of our scientists checked it out, and staff took a few

The Florida Museum is saddened to announce the sudden death of botanist Mark Whitten. Whitten was well known for his love of living things, his collegial spirit and gentle, kind manner. He began his work at the University of Florida in 1981 as a graduate student of Norris Williams, curator eme

How does one species become two? If you’re a biologist, that’s a loaded question. The consensus is that, in most cases, the process of speciation occurs when individuals from a single population become geographically isolated. If they remain separate long enough, they lose the ability to interbreed.
Unlike genomes, which contain the entirety of an organism’s DNA, transcriptomes

Most of us are familiar with sloths, the bear-like animals that hang from trees, live life in the slow lane, take a month to digest a meal and poop just once a week. Their closest living relatives are anteaters and armadillos, and if that seems like an odd pairing, there’s a reason why. Today, there

The spindly filaments and coral-like colonies of the ancient phylum of marine animals known as bryozoans likely aren’t the first thing that come to mind when you envision safe and protective child care. But a new study on the 600-million-year history of these obscure animals highlights the import
