A biologist discovered a new nematode species in Utah’s salty Great Salt Lake, expanding knowledge of life in extreme environments.
Biologist Julie Jung discovered a new species of nematode, named Diplolaimelloides woaabi, while researching life in Utah’s Great Salt Lake, an environment previously thought to support only two species due to extreme salinity.
Her team confirmed the tiny, bacteria-covered worm, less than a millimeter long, after three years of sampling and analysis, collaborating with the Northwest Band of the Shoshone Nation to honor their language.
The finding expands scientific understanding of life in extreme environments.
