A Florida Museum of Natural History lepidopterist recently received $24,000 to research the evolutionary relationships of an agricultural pest known as the tobacco hornworm and its relatives. The tobacco hornworm is a hawkmoth that occurs worldwide and causes great damage to the leaves of tobacco
The insect is commonly used as a model organism for research due to its short life

The saying “Birds of a feather flock together� is being given new meaning by a study published in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society b. Flocking birds often travel in groups made up of a single species, in which individuals are nearly indistinguishable from one another, as noted by
“When you have a flock with a really dominant, abundant species, there’s a model

With just a few clicks of a mouse, you can purchase your very own redtail garra, a type of fish that feeds on algae. Information about the fish’s biology, however, is much less easily obtained. That’s because redtail garra, although popular in the aquarium trade since at least the early 2000s, has u

Last week, I was about to go to work, when I spotted a drama unfolding on my window: a green anole had captured a sphinx moth. Of course, I had to stop and investigate. Moth predation by anoles is not something worth blogging about in its own right, but this sphinx moth was the size of the anole’s
Florida Museum’s Blackburn lab created a CT scan model of the green anole’s anatomy

From the jungles of Southeast Asia to the Greek Islands, Florida Museum of Natural History botanist Nico Cellinese has searched for the answers to how evolution works. But during fieldwork in the Mediterranean Basin—a biodiversity hotspot—she found more questions than answers. “There are so many

At first glance, the Cave Angelfish, Cryptotora thamicola, doesn’t seem that different from other cave fishes. It’s blind, it lives in caves, and it only grows to about an inch and a half long at adulthood. You certainly wouldn’t expect it to be able to climb up waterfalls. How does this small pi
