A SUPERMOON will fill the skies with bright moonlight tonight in a stunning stargazing spectacle. Today's full Moon marks the first of three so-called supermoons in 2026 – where our lunar neighbour appears bigger than usual. WHAT IS A SUPERMOON? A supermoon is a special type of full Moon event where it looms especially large...

A massive global genetics study is reshaping how we understand mental illness—and why diagnoses so often pile up. By analyzing genetic data from more than six million people, researchers uncovered deep genetic connections across 14 psychiatric conditions, showing that many disorders share common biological roots. Instead of existing in isolation, these conditions fall into five overlapping families, helping explain why depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and substance use disorders so frequently occur together.

Rhinogobius lingjiangensisChen, 2025DOI: doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5738.1.26 AbstractA new species of freshwater gobiid fish of the genus Rhinogobius Gill, 1859, was collected from the hill stream of Xijang, Pearl River basin, Gangxi Province, China. Rhinogobius lingjiangensis can be well distinguished from all other congeners by the unique combination of the following features: (1) fin rays: second dorsal fin rays I/7–8 (usually I/8); anal fin rays I/6–7 (usually I/6); pectoral fin rays 16–17 (modally 16); (2) squamation: longitudinal scale series 31–32 (modally 31); perdorsal scales 5–6 (modally 6); (3) vertebral count 28; and (4) specific colouration: cheek with 7 rather wide reddish orange parallel bands in male; caudal fin base with a central blackish brown spot in male; pectoral fin base greyish with brown vertical bar in male, anterior basal 1/4 region of pectoral fin with semicircular creamy yellow region in male. A brief comparison of current species with related species will be addressed.

NATHAN AKE refused to rule out a January exit from Manchester City as he sweats on his World Cup place. The £21m-rated Dutch international defender, 30, has slipped down the pecking order under Pep Guardiola and has just entered the final 18 months of his contract. Ake made just his third Premier League start of...
