Researchers have found more than 20 individuals of the species, the existence of which has been previously discussed.
In the inaccessible canyon in the northeast part of South Africa, researchers from the endangered wildlife trust have found the type of hecticon, which has not been seen since 1991 and which has been considered lost or even doubtful in terms of existence, Sciencex reports.
The expedition lasted only three days, but it was sufficient for researchers to find more than 20 individuals of flat blood blood geccons, seven of which managed to take photos and take tissue samples for examination. These materials are finally confirming that this is a separate and unique look.
After two species of species were found in 1991 in the province of MPONG, they were never seen. It causes doubts about whether it is actually a separate species, or, perhaps, these men are young individuals of another type of geckos. As a result, due to a long absence of Haecon observations, they are included in the list of lost species and classified as a view with insufficient data on the red list of the International Union of Nature Protection.
This is the fifth “restored” view that has been found at risk of wildlife trust in recent years. Among others – a mole that lives in sand sand and does not appear for more than 80 years, as well as rare species of butterfly, lizards and toads.
We remind you, earlier reported that in Canada they discovered a unique butterfly that has been separated for more than 40 thousand years.
