A new study shows mammals change their dietary niches based on climate-driven environmental changes, contradicting a common assumption that species maintain their niches despite global warming. Led by Florida Museum of Natural History vertebrate paleontologist Larisa DeSantis, researchers exa

Fossil plants from Alum Bluff represent a time when Florida’s climate was warmer and sea level was higher. In 1916 scientists identified 12 species of plant fossils from Alum Bluff – today Museum scientists have identified 22 more. Summary Fossil Palm (Sabalites apalachicolensis) From Liberty C

What’s going on? Did you know that Florida has fossils? The state’s unique geological history set the stage for the exceedingly rare process of preserving remains of plants and animals of the past.  Shark teeth are some of the most common fossils found in the state, especially in creek beds and
Florida’s fossil record goes back over 50 million years!

In a surprise twist, a major group of flowering plants is evolving twice as quickly in temperate zones as the tropics. The finding runs counter to a long-held hypothesis that tropical regions, home to the planet’s richest biological diversity, outpace their temperate counterparts in producing new sp

Initially, scientists theorized the extinct species may have belonged to the ginseng family (Araliaceae). However, a case once closed is now being revisited. New fo
