Agile Gracile Opossum

The Agile Gracile Opossum (Gracilinanus agilis) is a species in the genus Gracilinanus. It is currently classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. Typically found in diverse terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.

Trechispora microspora is a corticioid fungus producing very small spores, as its name indicates.

This saprotrophic fungus decomposes dead woody material, contributing to nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems.
