Bornean Smooth-Tailed Treeshrew

The Bornean Smooth-tailed Treeshrew (Dendrogale melanura) is a species in the genus Dendrogale. It is currently classified as Data Deficient on the IUCN Red List. Typically found in diverse terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.

Sphingobium cloacae is a Gram-negative aerobic rod isolated from sewage and wastewater environments, as its species name suggests. It inhabits polluted aquatic environments and wastewater treatment systems. This chemoheterotroph degrades aromatic compounds and xenobiotics, making it of interest for bioremediation applications.
