Chestnut-fronted Macaw
A medium-sized macaw of Central and South American tropical forests from southern Mexico to Bolivia and Brazil, chestnut-fronted macaws have predominantly green plumage with a chestnut forehead, red shoulder patches, and blue flight feathers. The smallest of the true macaws, they inhabit forest edges, savannas, and secondary woodland and often raid crops, making them locally unpopular with farmers. They are popular aviary birds, but wild populations face pressure from trapping and deforestation.
Snowella litoralis is a colonial, planktonic cyanobacterium in the family Merismopediaceae that forms spherical or irregular aggregates of cells on thin stalks within a gelatinous matrix. It inhabits freshwater lakes and can form part of the summer phytoplankton community. Its conservation status is not evaluated.
