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.

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.
