Student Discovers New Species

As you read this, 12 Moravian University students are tackling real-world research through the program Student Opportunities for Academic Research, or SOAR. Last year, Cielo Disla ’25, working with Assistant Professor of Biology Daniel Proud, studied harvestmen, commonly known as daddy longlegs, from throughout the Caribbean. They worked in the lab with specimens on loan from the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History. Disla and Proud discovered a new genus of harvestmen in Puerto Rico. “Cielo is working on formally describing the genus as Borikenia,” says Proud. “Boriken means Puerto Rico,” adds Disla. To describe a genus and species means to develop a detailed description of it for formal scientific publication.
