Chroomonas virescens is a species of cryptophyte alga in the family Chroomonadaceae, characterized by a greenish coloration, as reflected in the specific epithet virescens, meaning becoming green. This greenish hue distinguishes it from many Chroomonas species that display blue-green to brown tones, suggesting a particular phycobiliprotein composition or a balance of chlorophyll to accessory pigments that shifts the overall color toward green. Cryptophyte algae display a wide range of colors depending on the dominant phycobiliprotein in their plastid: phycoerythrin-rich species appear red to orange-brown, while phycocyanin-rich species tend toward blue-green or olive tones. Chroomonas virescens has been documented from European freshwater habitats. Like other Chroomonas species, it is a small, biflagellate, planktonic or periphytic unicell that contributes to primary production in its aquatic ecosystem. Freshwater cryptophytes perform an important ecological function as cold-tolerant primary producers that can be active during periods when many other algae are dormant. The species has not been assessed under IUCN conservation criteria.

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.
