Original: 57 new species discovered in deep-sea canyon near Argentina https:// fed.brid.gy/r/https://www.pops ci.com/environment/5
Scientists have identified 57 previously unknown species in a deep-sea canyon off the coast of Argentina, adding to knowledge of life in one of the ocean's least explored habitats. The finds highlight how much biodiversity remains undocumented in deep-sea environments, and come as interest grows in protecting submarine canyons from fishing and potential seabed mining.
Why now: The scale of the discovery, dozens of new species in a single expedition, makes it striking news about ocean biodiversity.
