Brown weeper capuchin

The Brown Weeper Capuchin (Cebus brunneus) is a species in the genus Cebus. It is currently classified as Endangered on the IUCN Red List. Typically found in diverse terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.

Chrysococcus bisetus is a species of unicellular chrysophyte microalga in the genus Chrysococcus, class Chrysophyceae, order Chromulinales. The genus Chrysococcus is characterized by cells enclosed within a lorica — a secreted outer case or vesicle — through which flagella protrude, a structure that distinguishes it from many other chrysophytes. The epithet bisetus, meaning two-bristled, describes a diagnostic feature of the lorica, which bears two bristle-like projections used for species identification. Chrysococcus species inhabit freshwater and brackish environments, typically occurring in cool, nutrient-poor to moderately enriched lakes, ponds, and slow-flowing water bodies. C. bisetus has been recorded from Norwegian and Swedish waters, consistent with the historical focus of chrysophyte research in Scandinavian freshwater habitats, and also from Brazilian waters, suggesting a broader distribution. Chrysophytes including Chrysococcus species are important components of oligotrophic lake phytoplankton, where they contribute to primary production and serve as food for zooplankton. The golden-brown coloration of Chrysococcus arises from chlorophylls a and c together with fucoxanthin, pigments shared with other heterokonts. Unlike diatoms, chrysophytes produce chrysolaminarin as their storage carbohydrate rather than starch. C. bisetus has not been assessed under IUCN criteria and is listed as Not Evaluated. As with most freshwater microalgae, global population size and distribution are poorly characterized, limiting meaningful conservation assessment.
