Orbilia comma is a minute discomycete fungus producing tiny, translucent to pale yellowish cup-shaped fruiting bodies on decaying wood and plant debris in humid forest settings. It belongs to a genus of small, inconspicuous fungi that play a role in decomposing organic material on the forest floor. Near Threatened, its status reflects sensitivity to woodland management changes and habitat loss.

Красный ара

One of the most brilliantly colored birds in the Americas, scarlet macaws display vivid red, yellow, and blue plumage with wingspans reaching 1 meter. Found in humid lowland forests from Mexico to Bolivia, they are highly intelligent, long-lived — up to 75 years — and form lifelong pair bonds. They travel long distances to clay licks where they consume mineral-rich soil to detoxify seeds. Listed as Least Concern but locally threatened by habitat loss and the pet trade.
