Scientists discover two new species of sea spider off Canada
Researchers described two previously unknown sea spider species from the Canadian coastline, and the coverage immediately fixated on their appearance: hairy legs, red eyes and, in one species, three lips. Sea spiders are marine arthropods, not true spiders, and the finds add to a genus that is still poorly catalogued in cold North Atlantic and Arctic waters. The specimens are now with the describing scientists, and no other details of the discovery have been released.
