Asian Badger

Asian badger (Meles leucurus) is a species in the genus Meles. It is listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. Typically found in diverse terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.

Dinobryon suecicum is a colonial, loricate chrysophyte alga forming branching chains of individual cells in vase-shaped loricae. It inhabits oligotrophic to mesotrophic freshwater lakes and ponds across boreal and temperate Europe, as its species name referencing Sweden implies. This mixotrophic organism performs photosynthesis and also ingests bacteria as supplemental nutrition.
