Arizona Gray Squirrel

The Arizona Gray Squirrel, Sciurus arizonensis, is a species. Its conservation status is listed as Data Deficient, meaning insufficient information exists to assess its risk of extinction. Typically found in diverse terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.

Phacus hamelii is a unicellular, photosynthetic euglenoid alga with a flattened, asymmetric cell body containing chloroplasts and a distinctive posterior tail-like extension. It inhabits freshwater environments including ponds, ditches, and slow-moving water bodies rich in organic matter. Like other Phacus species, it uses a flagellum for locomotion and can perform both photosynthesis and heterotrophic feeding.
