I would think it doesnāt really matter. A āspeciesā isnāt a true characteristic of the world, it is rather the concept we develop in order to differentiate one type of organism from others. In so far the species in this example is brand new, because we didnāt know a type of organism like that could exist. And frequently a species might be split up into two or more species. The real world isnāt changing, we just update our understanding of it to better match what we observe.

New Guy (Careproctus colliculi) is part of the genus Careproctus:
Its generic name is derived from the Ancient Greek κάĻα (kara, āface, headā) and ĻĻĻĪŗĻĻĻ (prÅktos, āanusā), therefore literally meaning ābutt-faceā.

i cast summon bigger fish
Curious is it would be better worded by saying it is newly discovered species vs a new species discovered?
Like by having new in front of species makes it seem the species is brand new vs being there a long time but just not discovered until now

⦠You know who else likes being discovered by marine biologists?
In a fair society, this comment would have more upvotes
I do not approve of this latest DLC. Can I get a refund?
