Austraalia teadlased on avastanud uue liigi mesilasi, kelle emastel on peas \u201esarved\u201c. Sarved aitavad emasmesilastel end kaitsta, koguda \u00f5ietolmu ja nektarit ning tuua pesamaterjali, muutes need oluliseks t\u00f6\u00f6riistaks nende igap\u00e4evaelus. Liigile anti nimeks Megachile Lucifer, mis viitab nii sarvilisele v\u00e4limusele kui ka ladinakeelsele t\u00e4hendusele \u201evalgusekandja\u201c. Avastus tehti L\u00e4\u00e4ne-Austraalias Goldfieldsi piirkonnas haruldasi taimi uurides. Uus liik on esimene lisandus antud mesilaste perekonda viimase 20 aasta jooksul.<\/p>\n
Avastuse teinud dr Kit Prendergast \u00fctles, et vaatas sel ajal Netflixi sarja \u201eLucifer\u201c ning leidis nime olevat sobiva ka seet\u00f5ttu, et see s\u00fcmboliseerib vajadust heita valgust kohalike mesilasliikide t\u00e4htsusele ja nende rollile haruldaste taimede tolmeldamisel.<\/p>\n
Avastusest kirjutati teadusajakirjas Journal of Hymenoptera Research, kus r\u00f5hutati ka vajadust kuulutada see piirkond kaitsealaks. Prendergast hoiatas, et piirkonnas elutsevad mesilased kui ka haruldased taimed v\u00f5ivad \u00fcheaegselt h\u00e4\u00e4buda inimtegevuse ja kliimamuutuste t\u00f5ttu. Ta kritiseeris Austraalia kaevandusettev\u00f5tteid, kes looduskeskkonna hindamisel ei arvesta sageli tolmeldajate t\u00e4htsust.<\/p>\n
Kuidas see lugu Sind end tundma pani?
