Chestnut-headed Crake

The Chestnut-headed Crake (Anurolimnas castaneiceps) is a species in the genus Anurolimnas. It is currently classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. Typically found in various aerial, terrestrial, and aquatic environments.

Cylindrotheca closterium is an elongated, needle-shaped marine and brackish water diatom common in coastal sediments, intertidal mudflats, and benthic biofilms worldwide. Its spindle-shaped silica frustule tapers to fine points at both ends. This species is an important primary producer in estuarine and shallow coastal ecosystems and can form dense mats on sediment surfaces.
