科学家确定了两个新的格鲁吉亚贝斯物种,两者都受到生境丧失和混合化的威胁。 Scientists identify two new Georgia bass species, both threatened by habitat loss and hybridization.

格鲁吉亚大学的研究人员已经确定了两种新的贝斯物种 -- -- 巴特拉姆的贝斯和阿尔塔马哈的贝斯 -- -- 先前被归类为红眼贝斯。 Researchers at the University of Georgia have identified two new bass species—Bartram’s bass and Altamaha bass—previously classified as redeye bass. 两者都是格鲁吉亚河系的土生土长,具有独特的物理特征和遗传差异。 Both are native to Georgia’s river systems, with distinct physical traits and genetic differences. 他们面临因沉积、水坝和非本地物种造成生境退化的威胁,导致杂交。 They face threats from habitat degradation due to sedimentation, dams, and non-native species that cause hybridization. 这一发现突出表明,需要有针对性地开展保护工作,以保护其剩余生境。 The discovery underscores the need for targeted conservation efforts to protect their remaining habitats.
