About this listen
In the rugged wilderness of Big Bend National Park in West Texas, a remarkable discovery is rewriting the rules of plant diversity in one of the most ecologically rich and challenging environments in North America. Nestled among the rocky, sun-scorched terrain of the Chihuahuan Desert, scientists have recently identified a striking new plant species that has piqued the curiosity of botanists and nature enthusiasts alike. Ovicula biradiata, or "Woolly Devil," was discovered in 2024, and it’s already generating excitement for its unique appearance and elusive habitat. With its fuzzy white foliage and maroon ray florets, Ovicula biradiata is unlike anything cataloged in the region before, offering a glimpse into the hidden beauty of the desert’s most rugged corners.
