Bacillus thuringiensis is a gram-positive, spore-forming soil bacterium in the family Bacillaceae, widely known for producing crystalline protein toxins (Cry proteins) that are insecticidal. It is globally distributed in soils, plant surfaces, and insect habitats. It is extensively used in biological pest control as a safe alternative to chemical insecticides.

Black-throated Mango

A large, striking hummingbird of tropical forests from southern Mexico to Argentina, black-throated mangos have dramatic sexual dimorphism — males display glittering black throat and breast with violet and green flanks and a bold purple tail, while females are white below with a central black stripe. Inhabiting forest edges, clearings, and gardens, they aggressively defend flowering trees. Males perform spectacular aerial display flights at treetop height. Listed as Least Concern across their broad neotropical range.
