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.

Sphacelaria tribuloides is a small, tufted brown alga forming compact cushion-like colonies on rocky substrates and larger algae. It inhabits intertidal and shallow subtidal rocky zones in temperate and tropical seas worldwide. This photosynthetic alga reproduces via characteristic star-shaped propagules and colonizes rocky marine surfaces.
