We have named and identified only a fraction of nature's diversity, and this is especially true for insects and fungi, both of which have millions of species still unknown to science.

At the same time, we are losing species and their habitats at an unprecedented rate, and researchers are racing against time to discover and conserve new species.

Researchers at 新澳门六合彩开奖网, working with colleagues at the University of Jyv盲skyl盲, Finland and , report 聽that the key to a quick and cost-effective 聽mapping of biodiversity has been right in front of our eyes, and yet invisible, all along- that is, in the air that surrounds us.

The air that surrounds us is a treasure trove- it is full of DNA from plants, fungi, bacteria, insects, mammals and other organisms, says Nerea Abrego of the University of Jyv盲skyl盲.

She led a study, with contribution from Professor Simon Creer of 新澳门六合彩开奖网.
