Um grupo de cientistas descobriu o lost world na Papua Nova Guiné, Indonésia. Fica aqui uma lista sumária das descobertas. É incrível saber que ainda existem alguns pedaços de mundo intacto. Era bom que fossem mais e se mantivessem assim mais tempo.
A summary of the team's main discoveries:
- A new species of honeyeater, the first new bird species discovered on the island of New Guinea since 1939
- The formerly unknown breeding grounds of a "lost" bird of paradise - the six-wired bird of paradise (Parotia berlepschi)
- First photographs of the golden-fronted bowerbird displaying at its bower.
- A new large mammal for Indonesia, the golden-mantled tree kangaroo (Dendrolagus pulcherrimus)
- More than 20 new species of frogs, including a tiny microhylid frog less than 14mm long
- A series of previously undescribed plant species, including five new species of palms
- A remarkable white-flowered rhododendron with flower about 15cm across
- Four new butterfly species.
