For the First Time, a Ruby Sea Dragon Flaunts in Front of the Camera

This news talks about the discovery of a new species of sea dragons so this belongs to the ambit of biology. It was published the last 12th of June of 2017.
Here’s the link

SUMMARY
This article talks about the discovery of a new species of Sea Dragons. Since the XIX century there was only known two types. Now, for the first time, scientists have observed the ruby sea dragon swimming in the wild. It is colored deep red and looks like a stretched-out sea horse with a hump like a camel and a tail it can curl. 

COMMENTARY

I think this article is a good way of realize that biology has infinity number of discoveries that aren’t shown yet. Science is continuously improving and expanding knowledge and that’s only an example. There are a lot of species discovered but it is said that they are only a little part of all the species that exist. The last species discovered are  Tortuga gigante de la isla Galápag, Giant Sundew, El pez "con caña de pescar (2016)

New technologies have helped these scientists to be well-equipped and it is a very important push to continue investigating. For example a strange type of camera had permitted to found this sea dragon.
There are other technologic inventions that have improved the investigations (specially underwater) like the ROV, drones…They must be financed and that’s the main problem we have in science.
