Bacidia rosella is a crustose lichen in the family Ramalinaceae, assessed as Critically Endangered (CR). It grows on the smooth bark of ancient trees in old-growth woodland habitats with long ecological continuity. Its critically endangered status reflects extreme rarity and the near-total loss of suitable veteran tree habitats across its range.

Delfin Kabir

The most studied and recognized dolphin species, bottlenose dolphins inhabit warm and temperate oceans worldwide, from coastal shallows to the open sea. Highly intelligent with large brains relative to body size, they demonstrate self-recognition, complex communication, and social learning. They live in fluid fission-fusion societies and cooperate to herd fish. A keystone indicator species for marine ecosystem health.
