New Marine Species Discovered On the Great Barrier Reef

I do find it a bit ironic that scientists continue to make discoveries of new species of marine life on the Great Barrier Reef while global warming alarmist continue to claim that species that live on the reef will soon go extinct:

Previously unknown shrimps, worms, scavenging crustaceans, and spectacularly colored soft corals were identified at the tropical sites during a study led by the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS).

Part of the Census of Marine Life, a ten-year initiative to assess global ocean diversity, the expeditions involved systematic sampling of lesser known coral reef animals at Lizard and Heron islands on the Great Barrier Reef and Ningaloo Reef on Australia’s west coast. [National Geographic News]

Make sure to check out the National Geographic link because the site has more pictures even video of some of the strange creatures discovered living on the reef.
