💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🎸🐍 Scientists named a newly described #NewGuinea groundsnake, "Lielaphis slashi", after Guns N’ Roses guitarist Slash, for his love of #reptiles.

Herpetologist Chris Austin first spotted the 71 cm (28 in) snake during nighttime fieldwork in 2006. Genetic and ecological analysis confirmed it as a distinct #species, supporting #conservation in New Guinea’s threatened #forests.

Digital records help monitor changes over time—such as shifts caused by climate change, habitat loss, or invasive species. This is critical for studying patterns in Climate Change and predicting future impacts. #wedigbio #biodiversity #communityscientist #naturalhistory #science #scienceforall #scistarter #scienceforeveryone #fieldmuseum
