Glow-in-the-Dark Cockroach Among Top 10 New Species

http://www.livescience.com/34636-top-10-new-species-announced.html

A glowing cockroach, a monkey with a blue behind and a meat-eating sponge snagged spots on a list of top 10 new species named in 2012, scientists announced today (May 23).

In its sixth year, the Top 10 New Species list is compiled by the International Institute for Species Exploration at Arizona State University and is announced on the anniversary of the birth of Carolus Linnaeus. An 18th-century botanist, Linnaeus created the modern system for naming and classifying species.

The panel plucked the top 10 new species from more than 140 nominations; to be considered, the species had to have been officially named in 2012 and described with the appropriate code of nomenclature. [See Images of the Top 10 New Species]

A group of those would make me think I was on hallucinogens.

Legit.

0.0 That picture is addicting to stare at.

I think all cockroaches should be glow in the dark so you can see them, and then kill them easier.

True

They look like wrapped babies. Adventure Time style. o-o
