BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN (Borneo Bulletin/Asia News Network): Teams of citizen scientists on expeditions in the tropical rainforest of Ulu Temburong National Park, Brunei Darussalam have discovered a new species of ‘semislug’.
Working with Taxon Expeditions, they managed to study the specimens, even analysed their DNA, in a field camp in the heart of the forest. The new species, published this week in the Biodiversity Data Journal, has been named microparmarion sallehi.
