The appendix evolved at least 32 times across 361 species, so it's 'unlikely to be a useless evolutionary accident,' research finds Most people know only two things about the appendix: You don't need it — and if it bursts, you need surgery fast. That basic story traces back at least to Charles Darwin, the English naturalist who developed the theory of natural selection. In "The Descent of Man," he described the appendix as a vestige: a leftover from plant-eating ancestors with larger digestive organs. For more than a century, that interpretation shaped both textbook and casual medical wisdom. But the evolutionary story of the appendix turns out to be much more complicated. Article continues below Along with our colleague Helene M. Hartman, a student preparing for a career in health care, we combined our expertise in behavioral ecology, biology and history to review the scientific literature on the appendix, expecting a simple answer. Instead, we found an organ that evolution kept reinventing, more interesting than most people imagine. How did the appendix evolve? The appendix is a small pouch branching off the first section of the large intestine. Its shape and structure vary widely across species — a clue that evolution may have tinkered with it more than once. Some species, including certain primates such as humans and great apes, have...

The Tawny Frogmouth (Podargus strigoides) is classed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List with a stable population trend. It is native to Australia and Tasmania. It resembles an owl, but is not an owl. They are very camouflaged during the day. They are nocturnal. It has a varied habitat type that includes forest, grassland, shrubland, urban areas but not very dense forests or deserts. This species eats mainly invertebrates but also reptiles, small mammals, and birds. It nests if trees, in nests made up of vegetation such as sticks and can be further added with feather down, moss etc. Both sexes incubate the eggs and lay one to two over 30 days. They are part of the Family Podargidae which includes 15 species. They are relatively closely related to nightjars.

Outlook for migratory species worsens amid habitat loss & avian flu, report finds - news From shorebirds flying between their Arctic breeding grounds and southerly foraging ranges to freshwater fish returning to native spawning streams, migratory animals are struggling. About half of all migratory species populations protected under a global treaty are now in decline, with the situation worsening in just the last two years, according to a new United Nations-backed report. When the first State of the World’s Migratory Species report was published in 2024, 44% of migratory species populations listed under the U.N. Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (CMS) were declining, according to data from the IUCN Red List, the world’s most comprehensive guide to global extinction risk. Since then, the proportion of imperiled CMS-listed species rose to 49%, according to updated Red List data and new research. Though the next status report isn’t due until around 2030, conservation advocates said the deteriorating situation required an interim report, as many countries are moving in the wrong direction when it comes to conserving wildlife that depend on various habitats to complete their life cycles. “This [interim report] is saying there are some alarming trends in the meantime; that we don’t want to wait six years to talk about this,”...

Counting the glow: India's first firefly checklist reveals 92 species Researchers have compiled the first comprehensive checklist of fireflies recorded in India, documenting 92 species, more than 60 per cent of which are endemic to the country. The study, published in the journal Zootaxa, brings together more than two centuries of scientific records and provides the most complete overview yet of firefly diversity in India. Scientists say the checklist offers a crucial baseline for understanding how these glowing insects are distributed across the country and for guiding future conservation efforts. First nationwide compilation The checklist is based on an extensive review of scientific literature published between 1881 and October 2025. Parvez, a PhD scholar at the University of Calcutta and lead author of the study, said the work was needed because India lacked a consolidated record of its firefly species despite centuries of scattered documentation. Despite more than 260 years of scattered scientific records, no comprehensive checklist of Indian fireflies had ever been compiled, he said. “Our study brings together records from 1758 to 2025, documenting 92 species across 27 genera, nearly 60 per cent of which are endemic to the country.” Many of the species were originally described in the 19th century and have not been revisited using modern...

Rapid evolution can 'rescue' species from climate change A potted scarlet monkeyflower would die within a few days without water. But multiple natural populations of the species survived an extreme, four-year drought in California, and researchers now know why: The flowers were rescued by their own rapid evolution. In the study, published in Science March 12, researchers tracked scarlet monkeyflower populations in Oregon and California for more than a decade and found that the populations rapidly evolved in response to prolonged extreme drought, with some recovering. The results provide the first full documentation of “evolutionary rescue” from climate change in natural populations while also mapping the genetic variations that enabled, and can now even predict, recovery. “Essentially what we found is that the populations that recovered are also the populations that evolved the fastest,” said first author Daniel Anstett, assistant professor of plant biology in the School of Integrative Plant Science in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. Previous studies had shown evolutionary rescue was possible in lab settings and in theoretical work, but this is the first study of natural populations to show decline due to climate change, evolution of climate adaptations across whole genomes and subsequent recovery. “And the genetic variation we saw, even before...

Can species evolve fast enough to survive as the planet heats up? For the first time, we have seen a species that was in decline due to extreme weather recover through rapid evolution. Does this mean species that are increasingly being hit by soaring temperatures and other challenging conditions can adapt as the planet gets warmer? It is clear that evolution has saved countless species from climate change in the past. Over the past half a billion years, Earth’s climate has varied from much hotter than it is now – with crocodiles in the Arctic – to much colder. Plants and animals have had to adapt to survive and migrate with shifting climes. But the key issue is time. Until now, the fastest climate change we know of was the Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum, which occurred around 56 million years ago, when temperatures rose 5°C to 8°C over a period of roughly 20,000 years. Now temperatures could rise by more than 4°C by the end of the century. Can evolution really make a difference over such a short time? The answer to that is definitely yes, at least for organisms with short generations. The latest evidence comes from a wild plant called the scarlet monkeyflower (Mimulus cardinalis), which managed to evolve its way...
