The brightly colored creature was discovered in the Florida Keys, which is home to many animals that are found nowhere else in the world.
Researchers have discovered a new species in the Florida Keys—and they have named it in honor of legendary American musician Jimmy Buffett's 'Margaritaville.'The new species—a brightly colored, lemon-yellow marine snail—is described for the first time in a study published Monday in the journal PeerJ.
'The luminous yellow color looked 'citrusy' to me from the first time I saw them underwater while scuba diving,' Bieler said. 'It was almost funny to find a lime-colored form in the reefs of Belize and a lemony one in the Keys.''Having been involved in biodiversity research in the Florida Keys for several decades, our team was no stranger to the regional signature drink, and, of course, Jimmy Buffett's music.
