Keith 5 Posted November 15, 2012 Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 That's upsetting Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zephyr 2 Posted November 16, 2012 Report 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.

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 post Share on other sites
