Scientific research reveals a record-breaking discovery rate of 16,000 new species annually. Explore the latest biodiversity findings from the University of Arizona.
NEW DELHI- A major study led by researchers at the University of Arizona suggests we are living in a golden age of discovery. Scientists are now documenting over 16,000 new species annually, challenging the belief that the pace of biological classification is slowing down.
Published in Science Advances, the findings highlight that modern molecular tools are helping identify thousands of hidden organisms. Senior author John Wiens emphasizes that documenting these species is the vital first step toward protecting them from the threat of global extinction.
