The Guardian "Age of Extinction" features our project on the deep sea @IUCNRedList !! But don't believe the "one scientist" headline. ๐Ÿ™ƒ This could never have happened without @elinthom @squamiferum @SSC_Mollusc_sg @DrShmoo @MonniKaboom @punkrocksnails @DeepStewardship

Here at SOSA, we believe that with a name and description, we can better know, study and protect ocean species. But species arenโ€™t the only things that need an identity - so do projects! Thatโ€™s why weโ€™re launching a brand for SOSA! Check it out below!

@UlsterWildlife Awesome diversity! FYI your "pteropod" is actually a swimming bubble snail, Akera bullata. And your "brittle star" is a crinoid, Antedon bifida

@incisorial @melisa_olave @oceanspecies_ @Senckenberg @squamiferum @TilicEkin Identifying a species as new, requires real expert knowledge and a usually "eureka" moment, noticing a species didn't fit anything with an established name. Nothing can replace this human insight of recognition of something as genuinely novel.

@melisa_olave @oceanspecies_ @Senckenberg @squamiferum @TilicEkin With a service, anyone can outsource some components of the process of describing new species. At the moment, @oceanspecies_ are working on pilot projects. Those pilot projects will give more information on speed (and price) so follow for updates! ๐Ÿ‘€
