Chroomonas plurococca is a species of cryptophyte alga in the family Chroomonadaceae, found in freshwater habitats in Europe. The specific epithet plurococca, suggesting multiple or several spherical structures, may relate to a characteristic of the cell morphology such as granular inclusions or a multinucleate-appearing structure under light microscopy. Cryptophytes are a phylogenetically ancient and ecologically significant group of eukaryotic algae whose cells contain a complex plastid derived from the secondary endosymbiosis of a red alga, with retention of the red algal nucleomorph in a compressed form within the periplastidial compartment. This evolutionary feature makes cryptophytes of unique importance in understanding the evolution of complex eukaryotic cells. Chroomonas plurococca inhabits the plankton and periphyton communities of freshwater lakes and ponds in temperate regions. It contributes to primary production and participates in the microbial loop. The species has been documented from European freshwater localities. As a microalga, it has not been formally assessed for conservation status by the IUCN.

가장 넓은 분포 범위를 가진 야생 갯과 동물인 회색늑대는 북아메리카에서 유라시아에 걸쳐 툰드라, 숲, 초원 등 다양한 서식지에 분포합니다. 우세한 번식 쌍이 이끄는 가족 단위 무리를 이루어 생활하는 고도로 사회적인 동물입니다. 최상위 포식자로서 먹이 개체군을 조절하고 생태계 구조를 근본적으로 형성하는데, 옐로스톤에서의 재도입 사례가 이를 잘 보여줍니다. 한때 심각하게 박해받았으나 많은 지역에서 개체군이 회복 중입니다.
