Day 18 #SciArtSeptember prompt cenote, or the limestone sinkholes accessible by ground water, a term originally only used for characteristic features in the Yucatán, Mexico and now applied more broadly to karst features anywhere, including in Australia, where fascinating but endangered stygofauna: aquatic animals who live underground, can be found. This is a hard-carved and hand-printed linocut 🧵

Rare giant "shrimp" is more widespread than previously believed, new findings reveal https://phys.org/news/2025-05-rare-giant-shrimp-widespread-previously.html
The supergiant #amphipod Alicella gigantea may inhabit over half of the world’s oceans https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rsos.241635
"#Amphipods like A. gigantea are #shrimp-like #crustaceans known for their narrow frames and a signature hump-backed curl in their posture. They roam the #DeepSea, from the abyssal depths (3,000–6,000 m) to beyond hadal zones (>6,000 m)"

What does this funky thing have to do with marshes?! Well, this is an amphipod, genus Crayngonyx. They inhabit springs (including cave springs), but also can be found in marshes!

#NewSpecies of ocean predator in the Atacama Trench

Next up for #InsertAnInvert2024 is stygofauna: aquatic animals who live underground. This is a hard-carved and hand-printed linocut print of a little semi-transparent, white amphipod crustacean in the Neoniphargidae group from the Pilbara. This is a large, dry, sparsely populated region in northern part of Western Australia which is a global biodiversity hotspot for subterranean fauna 🧵1/2

@RadicalAnthro The south-western groundwater shrimp: "British cave shrimps have an ancient lineage. DNA evidence shows Niphargus species arose about 88 million years ago, 23 million years before the dinosaurs went extinct! Groundwater crustaceans were also amongst the few invertebrates that weathered the ice age in the UK. Living underground kept them insulated from the frozen surface. The British cave shrimp and its close Irish relative N.irlandicus are currently believed to be the oldest animal species in the British Isles, present for at least 19.5million years."
