Chimantá Poison Frog

The Chimantá Poison Frog (Anomaloglossus rufulus) is a species in the genus Anomaloglossus. It is currently classified as Near Threatened on the IUCN Red List. Typically found in freshwater habitats, moist forests, and wetlands.

Physarum viride is a vibrantly coloured myxomycete (slime mould) producing small, bright yellow-green sporangia on decaying organic matter including dead wood, leaves, and litter in forest habitats. Like all Physarum species, it spends part of its life as a multinucleate plasmodium that creeps across substrates to engulf food particles. This species is found in moist woodlands across temperate and tropical zones.
