Chroomonas acuta is a species of cryptophyte alga in the family Chroomonadaceae, found in freshwater and brackish aquatic environments. Cryptophytes are biflagellate, unicellular algae characterized by the presence of a unique organelle called the nucleomorph — a remnant nucleus from a secondary endosymbiotic event in which an ancestral flagellate engulfed a red alga. This evolutionary heritage is reflected in the distinctive combination of pigments in the plastid, including chlorophyll a, chlorophyll c, and phycobiliproteins such as phycoerythrin and phycocyanin, which give cryptophytes their often blue-green to red-brown color. Chroomonas species are small flagellates that swim using two unequal flagella arising from a ventral groove. They are important members of freshwater phytoplankton communities, particularly in the cold-water picoplankton. Chroomonas acuta has a more pointed or acute cell shape compared to some related species, as indicated by its epithet. The species has been documented from European freshwater habitats. Cryptophytes contribute to primary production in freshwater and marine ecosystems and are a significant food source for heterotrophic protists and filter-feeding zooplankton. The species has not been assessed by the IUCN.

jaguar

아메리카 대륙에서 가장 큰 고양잇과 동물로, 체중이 최대 100kg에 달하며 단단하고 근육질의 체형과 특유의 로제트 무늬 털가죽을 지닌다. 멕시코에서 남아메리카까지 분포하며, 아마존과 판타날이 주요 서식지다. 뛰어난 수영 실력을 갖춘 최상위 포식자로, 먹이 개체수 조절에 핵심적 역할을 한다. 산림 벌채로 인해 서식 범위가 줄어들어 준위협종으로 분류된다.
