Do you believe there are still undiscovered species on Earth?

Besides deep sea creatures...

Do you believe there are any species not discovered on land, lakes, or other waterways besides the deep sea?

Yes. They name all sorts of new species of insects every year.

Insects and reptiles, sure, there are new ones being discovered all the time. IRRC there was even a new species of monkey discovered within the last year or two.

Yes. Species are discovered every year in places like the Amazon and Indonesia.

This has nothing to do with belief. This is an indisputable, objective fact. There are new species discovered every day. Most of them insects. The world is a wondrous place and we are still just beginning to really learn about it.

Hell yeah! Some are annihilated before they are documented , while others exist in areas that biologists haven't studied closely. Locals probably see em all the time, but they are technically "undiscovered". Another area that is probably rich in undiscovered species is the tepuis in Guiana.

So not counting aquatic life, insects, plants, bacteria, algae, archaea, etc.

Yes, I do believe there are undiscovered mammals on this planet.

The Republic of Congo is just one big jungle. I am sure a tree frog or something is there for the finding. Probably no large mammals, etc tho.

Yes. We discover multiple species every week. Why should next week be any different?

Not always an issue of being discovered, rather, studied and then determined to be a separate species from what was previously thought.
