The newly discovered Talamancan palm-pitviper can be found in trees or high shrubs
The newly discovered Talamancan palm-pitviper can be found in trees or high shrubs. Because its coloring is a characteristic it shares with its close relative the black-speckled palm-pitviper, it went unrecognized for more than 100 years. More about this image An international team of ...

Skin preparation from fish shows birefringence under cross polarization microscopy
Skin preparation from a lookdown fish seen under cross polarization microscopy shows birefringence in the skin. Researchers at The University of Texas at Austin studying how fish use polarized light to camouflage themselves found that some fish use microscopic structures, called platelets, in ...
