The Blue-capped Kingfisher (Actenoides hombroni) is a species in the genus Actenoides. It is currently classified as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List. Typically found in various aerial, terrestrial, and aquatic environments.

Sphingopyxis panaciterrulae is a Gram-negative aerobic rod isolated from ginseng-cultivated soils in Korea. It inhabits the rhizosphere of Panax ginseng plants and associated agricultural soils. This chemoheterotroph decomposes organic matter in ginseng farming soils and may participate in ginsenoside transformation.
