Chroomonas coerulea is a species of cryptophyte alga in the family Chroomonadaceae, distinguished by its blue or blue-green coloration, as referenced by the specific epithet coerulea, meaning sky-blue or cerulean. The blue-green to blue color of this species results from the predominance of phycocyanin or phycoerythrin 569 phycobiliprotein — pigments derived from its secondary red algal endosymbiont — combined with the other accessory pigments typical of cryptophytes. Many Chroomonas species appear in shades of olive to brown, making the distinctly blue-tinted coerulea somewhat unusual within the genus and useful for field identification by experienced microscopists. Chroomonas coerulea inhabits freshwater and possibly brackish environments in Europe, contributing to the micro-phytoplankton and picoplankton communities of its habitat. Cryptophyte algae are nutritionally valuable components of aquatic food webs and are frequently used as high-quality food sources in aquaculture and zooplankton culture due to their polyunsaturated fatty acid content. The species has not been assessed by the IUCN, consistent with the treatment of microalgal species.

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.
