Chrysochromulina cyathophora is a unicellular marine haptophyte in the genus Chrysochromulina, order Prymnesiales, class Prymnesiophyceae. The specific epithet cyathophora derives from Greek meaning cup-bearing, describing a characteristic cup-shaped element — likely a scale morphology — visible under transmission electron microscopy. Such ultrastructural features are essential for species identification within Chrysochromulina, where species are otherwise morphologically similar at the light microscopy level. C. cyathophora is known from Norwegian coastal marine environments and has also been recorded from Brazilian waters, a distribution pattern shared by several Chrysochromulina species, suggesting either broad Atlantic dispersal or recurrent misidentification across these distant populations. The species occupies the nanoplankton size fraction and is adapted to life in the water column of coastal to open-ocean marine systems. Chrysochromulina species as a group are important contributors to marine primary production, particularly in oligotrophic environments where smaller phytoplankton dominate. They may also practice mixotrophy — ingesting bacteria and small prey alongside photosynthesis — providing metabolic flexibility in nutrient-limited conditions. The life cycle of Chrysochromulina typically involves asexual division, though sexual stages are poorly documented for most species. C. cyathophora has not been assessed under the IUCN Red List framework, carrying a conservation status of Not Evaluated, consistent with the broader treatment of marine microplankton taxa that present significant challenges for population-level assessment and threat evaluation.

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.
