Keith Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 That's upsetting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Very upsetting. But, these things happen in nature; whether it's due to humans, geological processes, etc. I would not doubt that another Lucihormetica from the surrounding area will move in and perhaps quickly speciate, producing yet another novel species that may be equally beautiful and intriguing.

Ralph Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 quickly speciate, producing yet another novel species that may be equally beautiful and intriguing. Wish I'd live long enough to see it... I guess we'll have to be content with the boring Lucihormetica we still have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
