New species of Giant Mollusc discovered

I found this article to be extremely interesting because of the fact that even to this day whether it is a plant or animal species, we still continue to find these new species after all these years of existence. According to Cristian Aldea (a co author of this study) she explains "this genus belongs to a group which we know very little about. This group is made up of 14 species..." Given this information I find it pretty cool now that they have discovered this Mollusc because now maybe we can get a better understanding and knowledge of this species considering the fact that we only know very little about it. It is said that we have yet to discover even half of all the species out there in the world and as amazing as it is that just this one discovery is considered important there are still a multitude of species out there waiting to be discovered. Whether you really care about science or not you just kind of have to appreciate these scientists do every day discovering all of these different kinds of species and increasing our knowledge of our own world more and more as each and every day passes.

I choose to blog about this article because I always thought the idea of discovering new species was always so cool. We are increasing the number of identified species more and more thanks to the time and effort some of these scientists put into there work and I look forward to more species of animals to be discovered as life progresses.
