10 Most Bizarre Recently Discovered New Species!

From a terrifying moth-tarantula to the newest and most villainous fish in the ocean, here are ten of the coolest and most recently discovered species.

10: Giant Moth Tarantula
One of the more disturbing species recently discovered is a disgusting combination of a moth and a tarantula. While this creature is perfectly harmless, it's still freaky to look at. It's known properly as a polyphemus moth, and it looks like a fat spider that grew moth wings.

9: Sea Slug
Just recently, a new species of sea slug was discovered in Thailand. This little guy is fascinating to look at, with a bright fleshy body and hairs that are tipped purple and white. It was discovered by divers near Koh Tao and was recently described in a research paper in which it was named properly as the Unidentia aliciae.

8: Smaug Lizard
A new species of Smaug lizard has been discovered. And no, it's not as large as the infamous Smaug dragon from The Hobbit book, but it is a pretty cool critter. If anything, this little lizard would be the closest living relative of Smaug.

7: Electric Eel
Scientists have known all about the electric eel for at least 250 years. But they have been missing something this whole time. In 2019, researchers unveiled a shocking discovery – pun absolutely intended.

6: New Spiders
Depending on your feelings, this next discovery could be great, or it could be a total nightmare. A minimum of six new species of spider were found in the past couple of years, and they have been named after a series of popular children’s books from the 1970s.

5: Parasite Wasps
Wasps are scary enough without being parasites. A new species of wasp discovered is one of only a few found to be parasitic. The new wasp, which was discovered with help from the Rice University, is being described as an ecosystem engineer.

4: 15 New Geckos
Just a few years ago in Myanmar, 15 new species of gecko were found. And they were found in the space of only two weeks! This is probably one of the least-explored countries on the planet due to its chaotic government and miserable track record of genocide, but in October of 2016 a team of scientists found all 15 of these geckos inside isolated limestone habitats in two different regions of the country.

3: Ants in the Backyard
In this next story, an expert on ants found a new emergent species – and he didn't have to go far to do it. Jack Longino is an international ant expert who has traveled the world documenting all the different species of ants.

2: So Many Plants!
When most of us look at a garden, or when we take a stroll through the forest, we don't really see that many plant species. For example, I see trees and bushes. But if you're a plant expert, you probably see thousands of different species on a single walk through the park.

1: Nightmare Fish
The coolest recent animal discovery is definitely the nightmare fish. Scientists have discovered a very black fish that lives somewhere around 6,500 feet below the surface of the ocean. It is among the darkest creatures ever found by scientists.

Tarantula Moth - "Even though it looks like it would bite it can't because like other moths and butterflies, it has no mouth"
Proceeds to say - "You can catch them on oak trees eating the leaves?"
Wait what 😳 ?

I saw a Polythemus moth in VA about 15 years ago I imagine it took so long to document because nobody wanted to touch one

Well the Tarantula must’ve had a Red Bull how else would it have grown moth wings?

I found a moth like that, well, it didn't have spider legs, but it was that big and the pattern was similar. This was in North New York near Canada

Moths make “cocoons, ” butterflies make a “chrysalis.” That’s basic grade school science. The moth doesn’t eat the oak tree leaves, the larval stage (caterpillar) feeds on the leaves. The moth uses its tongue (proboscis) to drink nutrients from many different sources including tree sap, flower nectar, etc. Again grade school science class information. You get a D because at least you didn’t call it a butterfly.

Wait so the wasp somehow time traveled to see other insects requirements for food then went to his super duper Chem lab and made a zombie drug to add to it, amazing...or is there a God.

Isn't it suspicious that he has 1 million subscribers, but yet barely any comments, likes, and views.
You can tell by the intro, and tone of voice that this is fake.

It makes me wonder when we discover a new species in areas that have been studied before and it's baffling why it wasn't discovered sooner if its not that we didnt discover it, its that our world developers just made a new expansion pack for our simulation that came with new content and collectibles lmfao 😂 😂

Sea animals have such pretty colors and the ones that glow are so beautiful in the pristine blue ocean waters.all of earth's natural things are great like fresh air and natural spring water and lush flower foliage and beautiful waterfalls and seashells that have beautiful pearls in them! Just think about it though!🤗🥰

That ant guy works and studies ants he could have brought it over, to find a rare ant at home and not in the wild is a bit suspicious 🤔
