So excited to share this! A new species from cold seeps in the GoMx. Geometric morphometrics, ecology and genetics of the new and sibling species suggest a case of ecological adaptation to cold seeps in the GoM!

A beautiful pill scarab that I found in dead leaves in the Ecuadorian Amazon. Ceratocanthine are known for their ability to conglobate: rolling into a nearly perfect ball to avoid predators. They use the ball-mode even during inactivity - perhaps it's a way for them to rest too.
