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.
Lysobacter concretionis is a gliding, Gram-negative bacterium notable for its production of lytic enzymes capable of degrading other microorganisms. It has been isolated from soil and sediment environments with high organic content. This predatory bacterium feeds by lysing other bacteria and fungi, releasing their cellular contents.
