The Burnished Saki (Pithecia inusta) is a species in the genus Pithecia. It is currently classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. Typically found in diverse terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.

Hapalosiphon luteolus is a filamentous, branching cyanobacterium found in freshwater habitats, damp soil, and moist terrestrial environments including peat bogs and wetland margins. It produces a yellowish pigmentation and forms heterocysts capable of nitrogen fixation. This species contributes to nitrogen cycling in wetland and semi-aquatic ecosystems where it forms part of benthic microbial communities.
