Black-throated Mango

검은목망고벌새(Anthracothorax nigricollis)는 멕시코 남부에서 아르헨티나까지 열대림에 서식하는 크고 화려한 벌새입니다. 뚜렷한 성적 이형성을 보이며, 수컷은 반짝이는 검은 목과 가슴에 보라·녹색 옆구리와 선명한 보라색 꼬리를 자랑하고, 암컷은 가슴 중앙에 검은 줄무늬가 있는 흰 아랫면을 지닙니다. 개화하는 나무를 공격적으로 방어하며 열대 전역에서 최소관심종으로 분류됩니다.

Clostridium botulinum is an anaerobic, endospore-forming bacterium in the family Clostridiaceae and the causative agent of botulism, a potentially fatal neuroparalytic illness caused by its potent botulinum neurotoxin — the most acutely toxic substance known. The neurotoxin acts by blocking acetylcholine release at neuromuscular junctions, causing flaccid paralysis and potentially respiratory failure. Seven serologically distinct toxin types (A through G) are produced by different strains, with types A, B, E, and F responsible for human botulism occurring through foodborne intoxication, wound infection, and infant intestinal colonization. C. botulinum spores are ubiquitous in soil and sediments worldwide, resisting boiling for extended periods and requiring autoclaving to destroy. Home-canned low-acid foods provide ideal anaerobic, low-acid conditions for germination and toxin production. Paradoxically, purified botulinum toxin has extensive medical applications, used clinically to treat spasticity, hyperhidrosis, chronic migraine, and cosmetically to reduce facial wrinkles (Botox). Strains are distributed globally and isolated from soils, sediments, and animal intestines across all continents.
