On this current publication, PhD candidate Miguel and his co-authors current three new species of marine bristle worms (polychaeta) within the household Orbiniidae, all from the genus Orbiniella.
The work centered on learning the variety of the group from the North Atlantic and the Arctic, and has used a mixture of molecular and morphological analyses.
The brand new species have been named Orbiniella parapari, Orbiniella griegi, and Orbiniella mayhemi. The selection of names (etymology) goes as follows:
- O. parapari: This species is devoted to the Spanish polychaetologist Dr. Julio Parapar, who described the primary Orbiniella species within the North Atlantic waters, Orbiniella petersenae Parapar, Moreira & Helgason, 2015.
- O. griegi: This species is called in honour of Edvard Grieg, the Norwegian musician born and raised in Bergen, town the place the current research was carried out.
- O. mayhemi: The species is called in honour to the Norwegian Black Steel band from Oslo, Mayhem, one of many bands that the majority contributed to the event of the Norwegian Black Steel within the 90-s. MAM was listening to their music to endure the darkest hours within the lab.
This will likely the primary time classical composer Edvard Grieg and notorious black metallic band Mayhem are introduced as intently associated?
