The Chinese Red Pika (Ochotona erythrotis) is a species in the genus Ochotona. It is currently classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List.
Salinicoccus roseus is a pink to rose-pigmented, halophilic Gram-positive coccus found in saline habitats.

This aerobic chemoheterotroph produces carotenoid pigments that may protect it from high-intensity sunlight in its exposed saline environment.
