Grosse Tümmler, Grosstümmler

The most studied and recognized dolphin species, bottlenose dolphins inhabit warm and temperate oceans worldwide, from coastal shallows to the open sea. Highly intelligent with large brains relative to body size, they demonstrate self-recognition, complex communication, and social learning. They live in fluid fission-fusion societies and cooperate to herd fish. A keystone indicator species for marine ecosystem health.

Pseudostaurosira parasitica is a small, linear to lanceolate freshwater diatom that often grows as an epiphyte on other aquatic organisms. It inhabits benthic and epiphytic habitats in rivers, lakes, and ponds across temperate and boreal regions worldwide. This photosynthetic diatom contributes to attached algal biofilm communities in freshwater systems.
