So many New Guinea palms have ridged endocarps (like this Ptychococcus paradoxus), even species in genera that don’t normally have ridged endocarps (like Licuala). We have idly wondered if it is related to dispersal by cassowaries. ⚠️Untested hypothesis ⚠️ #PoNG #Arecaceae
Postdoc advertised in my lab to study mobile DNA in mammalian genomes. Permanent position with superannuation and tax concessions in addition to advertised salary. Would suit someone straight out of PhD or a more experienced staff scientist. Please RT nature.com/naturecareers/…
Today is the official launch day of Palms of New Guinea! This week, I’ll be posting bits about the #palms. PoNG was conceived in 1995. Over the years, the PoNG team published 3 new genera, 79 new species & 45 new combinations. They’re all in the new book! #PoNG #Arecaceae
