STORY: Teenager discovers new species in south China's Guangxi DATELINE: July 18, 2023 LENGTH: 00:00:15 LOCATION: NANNING, China CATEGORY: SCIENCE SHOTLIST: 1. various of the pictures depicting the research STORYLINE: A teenager in south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region has found a new species of freshwater crab. The finding was recently published in the scientific journal ZooKeys. 17-year-old Zhang Yixuan, a nature and biology enthusiast, found several crabs exhibiting unique characteristics when exploring a stream in Rongxian County last year. Upon careful observation and extensive literature review, Zhang suspected that he found a previously unidentified crab species due to distinct differences in their morphology. Zhang then contacted Zou Jiexin, an expert from Nanchang University, who, after conducting an investigation into the crab's habitat, origin, and genetic information, confirmed it as a new species: Sinolapotamon cirratum sp.nov. The finding expanded the Sinolapotamon genus from 3

SOUNDBITE (Chinese): DAI RUIMING, Researchers from the Natural History Museum of Bayannur City 3. various of sites of dinosaur fossil STORYLINE: Researchers have found a relatively complete dinosaur fossil dating back approximately 125 million years in north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Researchers from the Natural History Museum of Bayannur City, Inner Mongolia, discovered it during a regular inspection of Urad Back Banner. A preliminary study on bone morphology showed that the fossil belonged to an iguanodon in the Early Cretaceous period. It was large and close to adulthood, said Dai Ruiming from the museum. Researchers are cleaning and reinforcing the giant skeleton of the large herbivorous dinosaur. Protection measures will be taken based on how many fossils they wi
