Chrysosphaerella brevispina is a colonial chrysophyte alga in the genus Chrysosphaerella, class Chrysophyceae. The genus is defined by its colonial organization: cells are arranged in spherical or discoid colonies in which each cell bears siliceous scales on its surface and projects stiff, spine-like silica bristles outward. The specific epithet brevispina (Latin: short spine) describes the relatively short silica spines that distinguish this species from congeners bearing longer projections. C. brevispina is found in freshwater environments, particularly in oligotrophic lakes and ponds of Scandinavia, where chrysophyte communities are richest. Chrysosphaerella species, like other chrysophytes, thrive in cold, clear, soft-water habitats and are sensitive indicators of water quality. The silica spines and scales produced by Chrysosphaerella cells are preserved in lake sediments as microfossils, providing paleoenvironmental records stretching back thousands of years. The spines may function as anti-grazing structures, reducing ingestion by zooplankton. The species has not been evaluated for conservation status by the IUCN and is listed as Not Evaluated. Its ecology and distribution in lakes outside Scandinavia are incompletely documented.

ミミグロハチドリ

ハチドリの中で単色または虹色の羽毛が主流な中、珍しく班点や斑点のある下面を持つ中型のハチドリで、コロンビアとベネズエラからボリビア南部まで標高900〜3,000メートルのアンデスの雲霧林と林縁に生息する。班点のある下面パターンは、苔に覆われた樹皮に止まる際に卓越した迷彩効果を提供する。蜜と小型節足動物を採食し、アンデスの着生植物の重要な花粉媒介者として機能する。
