Chrysolykos complanatus is a freshwater chrysophyte microalga in the genus Chrysolykos, class Chrysophyceae. The species epithet complanatus — flattened or compressed — describes a lorica that is notably flattened in lateral view compared with the more three-dimensional forms of other Chrysolykos species. This flattened lorica morphology is the primary taxonomic character distinguishing C. complanatus from the angular C. angulatus and the boot-shaped C. calceatus within the small genus Chrysolykos. The loricate chrysophytes, including Chrysolykos, are characterized by cells enclosed within a species-specific outer case from which two flagella emerge — one directed anteriorly and one often wrapped around the cell — enabling swimming in aquatic environments. C. complanatus has been recorded from Norwegian and Swedish freshwater ecosystems, contributing to the known diversity of chrysophytes in cold Scandinavian lakes and pond habitats. These boreal and subarctic freshwater environments, often characterized by low pH, low nutrient concentrations, and high dissolved organic carbon from surrounding peat bogs, support characteristic chrysophyte assemblages in which loricate forms are frequently present. The species contributes to primary production as a photoautotroph and may supplement its carbon budget through bacterivory. Chrysolykos species are minor components of most phytoplankton communities and are not known to form blooms. C. complanatus has not been evaluated under IUCN Red List criteria and is listed as Not Evaluated.

Golden Eagle

세계에서 가장 강력하고 널리 분포하는 맹금류 중 하나인 검독수리는 날개 폭이 2.2m에 달하며 북반구 전역의 산악 지형에 서식한다. 뛰어난 공중 사냥꾼으로 활공 비행과 시속 200km 이상의 가파른 강하를 이용해 토끼, 산토끼, 땅다람쥐, 때로는 어린 사슴과 여우를 포획한다. 많은 문화권에서 수천 년에 걸친 매사냥 전통의 중심에 있어 왔다.
