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.

Staphylococcus equorum is a coagulase-negative gram-positive coccus in the family Staphylococcaceae, commonly associated with horses and their environment. It is also found in fermented foods and has been studied for its role in the ripening of artisanal cheeses. Its conservation status is not evaluated.
