The Big-Leaf Maple (Acer macrophyllum) is a species in the genus Acer. It is currently classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. Typically found in diverse terrestrial habitats from tropical forests to temperate regions.

Symphytocarpus amaurochaetoides is a myxomycete (slime mould) producing dark, clustered sporangia on decaying wood and plant debris in forest environments. It belongs to a group of organisms that alternate between a motile, feeding plasmodium and a reproductive sporangial stage. Like other myxomycetes, it contributes to microbial ecology by feeding on bacteria and detritus in woodland habitats.
