Still Waters Posted November 9, 2013 #1 Share Posted November 9, 2013 When new species are found near populated areas, they are often small and inconspicuous, not, for example, a hammerhead shark. But that's exactly what a team of researchers discovered along the coast of South Carolina. The new species looks virtually identical to the scalloped hammerhead, but is genetically distinct, and contains about 10 fewer vertebrae, or segments of backbone, new research shows. http://www.nbcnews.c...lina-8C11566213 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
