Marjorie Courtenay-Latimer was born #OTD (South Africa, 24 February 1907 – 17 May 2004). She is best known for her key role in the 1938 rediscovery of the Coelacanth, a fish with a fossil record going back over 400 million years which was thought to have gone extinct during the K-Pg extinction event of 66 millions years ago.

Below are her original sketch and desciption of the specimen she recovered from a South African fishing boat's catch and did her best to preserve until the ichthyologist she was writing to, J. L. B. Smith (South African, 1897 - 1968) could arrive to identify it. He was indeed able to confirm it was the long-lost Coelacanth, and give the genus the scientific name Latimeria in her honor.

Here is a four-stamp set issued by South Africa in 1989 commemorating the event, designed by Sheila Nowers:

PS - the 1938 one is now known as the West Indian Ocean Coelacanth (Latimeria chalumnae), as there was a SECOND living species confirmed in 1999, named the Indonesian Coelacanth (L. menadoensis). Its find was commemorated by Indonesia with this 2000 souvenir stamp sheet:

Here is a cool video about this amazing "Lazarus taxon" and Marjorie Courtenay-Latimer's key role in finding and perserving her now-famous specimen for science:

sigh. the one thing film red got the most correct was making gear 5 luffy fully black and white.

#why did they add colors to him. he is supposed to be a 1930s rubberhose cartoon man. the only acceptable color is red eyes and THATS IT #i remember seeing it in the manga and seeing kaido call it a pure white transformation. the literal pure black and white colorless manga #THATS IS HIS IDEAL COLOR!!!! WITH RED EYES!!! AND NOTHING ELSE FOR COLOR LITERALLY A CARTOON STAMPED ONTO THE REAL WORLD
