Archaebacteria

Methanocaldococcus Jannaschii:

it is an autotrophic hyperthermophilic organism. They were found to live in extreme environments such as hypothermal vents at the bottom of the oceans in which water reaches boiling temperature or pressure is extremely high. They are the extreme thermophiles meaning, the bacteria live at high temperatures.

 

Ferroplasma Acidiphilum:

it is a species of an iron-oxidizing, acidophilic, chemolithoautotrophic archaea. This is a species that lives in a metal-heavy environment containing high levels of iron and sulfur at a very acidic pH. The Ferroplasma acidiphilum has been categorized as an extremophile as it grows optimally at a pH of 1.7.

Eubacteria 

Venenivibrio Stagnispumantis:

it was the first microorganism isolated from the hot spring champagne pool in New Zealand. The growth of the Venenivibrio stagnispumantis is observed under thermophilic conditions between 45 degrees Celsius and 75 degrees Celsius, under moderate acidophilic conditions between pH 4.8 and 5.8.

Acidithiobacillus Ferrooxidans:

It is also known as Slimer and they are most commonly found in pitch-black environments. Those of which may include in deep caves, and acid mine drainages. Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans thrive on a pH level of 1.5 to 2.5 where they are able to convert insoluble metals to their soluble state.

Protists

Oxytricha Trifallax:

Oxytricha is a ciliated protozoan that is single-celled eukaryotes, and unlike bacteria, and like animals and plants, have a nucleus. Like most ciliates, Oxytricha has two types of nuclei, each with a different genome: macronuclei are the sites of gene expression and carry around 1000 copies of the macronuclear genome. Micronuclei, on the other hand, are diploid (carries two copies of the micronuclear genome) and transcriptionally silent. the macronuclear genome is maintained as a series of nanochromosomes (many of which only has one gene)

Radiolaria:

This protist is also known as Radiozoa, and they are unicellular eukaryotic organisms that produce complex and intricate mineral skeletons. You can find them in the ocean floors, where the composition of their skeletal remains makes up a huge part of the floors. Radiolaria food source includes zooplankton, crustacean larvae, and flagellates. Many will recognize the protist by its geometric shape.

Fungi 

Panellus Stipticus:

Panellus Stipticus, also known as the bitter oyster, is hardwood-rotting saprobe and it is more common in eastern North America than in the West. You can easily recognize the fungi by its small size, the tiny, lateral stems that terminate in an abrupt line where it meets the gills, woolly cap surface, and the white spore print. it is tough and it revives itself in rainwater after drying out, like many Marasmius species. Lastly, this kind of fungi has a bright neon green glow that occurs in less than complete darkness. It occurs because the glow is dependent on available oxygen and dramatic and sudden increase in brightness. This can be achieved when it is exposed to the open air.

 

Rhodotus Palmatus:

The Rhodotus Palmatus, also known as the wrinkled peach, is a type of mushroom where the cap features an elaborate network of ridges and veins. But, they can also be found without these ridges, at which point being able to identify it is more challenging. This type of fungi has a salmon pinkish-orange color and it is slimy and gelatinous. They grow alone scattered, or in troops on a wet, well-decayed wood of hardwoods; late spring through fall; widely distributed east of the Great Plains.

Animalia 

Glaucus Atlanticus:

The Glaucus Atlanticus, also known as “The Blue Dragon”, is a rare bizarre-looking marine creature in the group of sea slugs known as nudibranchs. They can be found in the temperate and tropical waters of the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans. The slug lives its life floating upside-down on the surface of the ocean because of the air bubble which it swallows and keeps inside its stomach. the distinct color pattern helps it avoid both flying and swimming predators while floating wherever the wind and the currents take it. The blue color helps it blend into the water’s surface when seen from above, while its back is more of a grayish color, helping it blend into the ocean when seen from below. the food sources is a jellyfish, it snatches it the body of the jellyfish with the rows of needle-sharp teeth. When they have consumed poisonous jellyfish, they have the ability to concentrate on that poison which would make their sting more powerful than that of the jellyfish they are

Ambystoma mexicanum:

Ambystoma mexicanum is also known as an Axolotls and as a Mexican salamander or a Mexican walking fish.They are historically found in lakes Chalco and Xochimilco of the Valley of Mexico near Mexico City. They live in a large habitat that is relatively permanent, high altitude lakes located near Mexico City. They possess feathery external gills and finned trails for swimming. They are the retention of larval stage characteristics throughout life, so axolotls usually never fully resemble an adult salamander. the axolotl’s most bizarre feature is its retention of its branch-like gills. These are external projections from the neck on each side of the head. Each side has three branches covered with feathery filaments which increase the surface area for gas exchange. The axolotl has a long, slim and darkly colored body, and short legs, with four digits on the front feet and five digits on the hind feet.

 

Plantae

Brasenia

Brasenia only consists of one species and it is the Brasenia Schreberi. This type of Plantae is widely distributed in North American, the West Indies, Northern South America, Eastern Asia, Australia, the Indian Subcontinent, and lastly, part of Africa. It is an aquatic plant with floating, peltate leaves and rhizomatous stems. It can be identified by its bright green leaves, small flowers that bloom from June through September, and thick mucilage that covers all of the underwater organs, including the underside of the leaves, stems, and developing buds. They can be found in shallow water of lakes, rivers and beaver pond, particularly those with somewhat acidic water.

 

Rafflesia Arnoldii

This is one of the largest know individual flowers in the world located in southeast Asia islands of Sumatra and Borneo, where it occurs in primary and secondary forest, up to 1,000 meters above sea level. it is parasitic on members of the genus Tetrastigma. The Rafflesia Arnoldii is also known as the stinking corpse lily. It has no roots or leaves and most of the time lives unobserved inside the woody stems and roots of its host. They only become visible when its plump buds emerge through the bark of its host and develop into the large, fleshy flowers which are pollinated by carrion-flies, who are attracted by the smell the flower gives off.
