Pictures of new species discovered in New Guinea February 18, 2006

Papua New Guinea has more than once provided true life events of a “Lost World” nature, because of the geography of the region. The shape of the mountain ranges has left behind completely isolated areas, some quite vast, where the local biodiversity develops or stagnates totally unaffected and unknown by the outside world.

The discoveries were made under CI’s Rapid Assessment Program (RAP) which deploys expert scientists to poorly understood regions in order to quickly assess the biological diversity of an area. The conservation organization makes RAP results immediately available to local and international decision makers to help support conservation action and biodiversity protection.
