Common palm civet

<em>Paradoxurus hermaphroditus</em> is a medium-sized viverrid mammal in the family Viverridae, distributed across South and Southeast Asia. The species inhabits a broad range of ecosystems, including tropical and subtropical forests, plantations, agricultural edges, and urban environments. It is primarily nocturnal and arboreal, foraging in tree canopies as well as on the ground. As an opportunistic omnivore, it typically consumes fruits, berries, small vertebrates, invertebrates, and occasionally birds' eggs, playing a role in seed dispersal for a variety of fruiting plant species. The common palm civet is famously associated with the production of kopi luwak, a specialty coffee made from beans that have passed through its digestive tract, raising ethical concerns about the captive keeping of wild civets for this industry. The IUCN currently assesses this species as Least Concern given its wide distribution and tolerance of modified habitats. No country-level distribution records are present in current datasets, though the species is broadly distributed across the Indo-Malayan realm. Biological traits including precise lifespan estimates, body measurements, and standardized dietary data remain poorly documented in comprehensive databases. Conservation pressures include hunting and the exotic pet trade.

Uromyces lineolatus는 Pucciniaceae과에 속하는 녹병균으로, 습지 서식지의 벼과 및 사초과 식물을 감염시키는 이종 기생 또는 동종 기생 절대 기생성 병원균입니다. 숙주 잎 표면에 특징적인 적갈색 포자퇴(uredinia)를 형성해 하포자를 분산시킵니다. 이 종과 같은 녹병균은 전 세계적으로 경제적·생태적으로 가장 중요한 식물 병원균 중 하나입니다.
