Do you know Family Tree Mandala ?

Do you know Family Tree Mandala? The latest piece 'Chondrichthyes' has been completed as a result of inspiring collaboration with Takashi Oda @studiocorvo and more talents. 

 

I contributed my expertise of molecular evolution to this amazing joint project. Want one for yourself?

 

I really thank people who supported this project through crowdfunding or providing scientific information that my own expertise could not cover. It has not yet widely on sale, but I hope that interested people can get one from anywhere in the world.

Welcome to Japan - Callorhinchus milii

I am back here after a quite long interval.

Here is a movie of Callorihnchus milii (ghost shark or elephant fish) very recently introduced in the Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan.

This species has also been introduced in another aquarium in Ikebukuro, Tokyo.
