Yilong Lake is a large freshwater lake located in Shiping County, Honghe Prefecture, Yunnan province, southwestern China. The lake has a surface area of approximately 32 square kilometres (12 sq mi) and is particularly notable for its scenery, including the colorful lotus flowers that bloom on its surface. It is located about 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) east of the county seat. The people who live in the vicinity of the lake are largely of the Yi ethnic group. As of the spring of 2013 a severe drought had resulted in substantial lowering of the water level.

Anabarilius is a genus of freshwater ray-finned fish belonging to the family Xenocyprididae, the East Asian minnows or sharpbellies, most of them only occurring in the area of China. Many of the species have very restricted geographic range and have been negatively impacted by introduced species, fishing, and habitat degradation; the IUCN Red List includes five Anabarilius species that are either endangered or critically endangered and one species that is considered extinct.
Labeobarbus macrolepis is a species of ray-finned fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is found in Burundi and Tanzania. Its natural habitats are rivers, freshwater lakes, freshwater marshes, and inland deltas. It is becoming rare due to habitat loss.
The largescale pupfish is a species of fish in the family Cyprinodontidae.

Anabarilius macrolepis is an extinct species of freshwater ray-finned fish belonging to the family Xenocyprididae, the East Asian minnows or sharpbellies. This species was endemic to Yilong Lake in Yunnan, China. It is believed that it became extinct when Yilong Lake dried up in 1981, as a result of water abstraction for agriculture. The species was not observed in 1983–84, and was declared extinct in 2011.

Quercus ithaburensis, the Mount Tabor oak, is a tree in the beech family Fagaceae. It is found from southeastern Italy to the Levant. It is the national tree of Jordan. Two subspecies are accepted, Quercus ithaburensis subsp. ithaburensis and Quercus ithaburensis subsp. macrolepis. Together with Quercus brantii, it forms a clade of distinct, closely related species within the oak section Cerris.
The silver hatchet chela is a danionins fish in the family Cyprinidae. Endemic in South Asia, it is found in Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and Myanmar.

Laubuka fasciata is a species of cyprinid fish endemic to river systems in Kerala, India. It is known as Malabar Hatchet Chela. The fish was first discovered in 1958 in the Anamalai streams by the Keralite fish scientist Eric Godwin Silas. The species was named Fasciata because of it shiny stripe on the body.
Caridina yilong is a species of freshwater shrimp in the family Atyidae. C. yilong was described from Lake Yilong in Yunnan, China, and was believed to be endemic to the margins of the lake among fringing vegetation. Only the type series has ever been collected, and the type locality of Lake Yilong has since dried up for extended periods of time due to the abstraction of water. Organic pollution caused by sedimentation along with agricultural and industrial pollution has caused this species to be assessed as Critically Endangered by the IUCN, with the caveat possibly extinct. In addition, two species of fish, Anabarilius macrolepis and Cyprinus yilongensis, that also were endemic to the lake are now extinct.
Atrilinea macrolepis is a species of freshwater ray-finned fishes belonging to the family Xenocyprididae. This fish is endemic to China where it occurs in the upper Han Jiang basin in Shaanxi and Hubei. A. macrolepis is a small fish with a maximum published standard length of 10 cm (3.9 in).

The Lessepsian lizardfish is a species of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the family Synodontidae, the lizardfishes. This species was first formally described in 2015 by Russell, Golani and Tikochinski from the Israeli part of the Red Sea. This species is found in the Indian Ocean from South Africa north to the Red Sea and east to the Andaman Sea. It has entered the Mediterranean Sea, probably through the Suez Canal as a Lessepsian migrant and is now a commercially important species for fisheries in the eastern part of that sea. This species was previously thought to have been either S. undosquamis or S. macrolepis.
Xenocypris macrolepis, also known as the yellowfin, is a species of fish in the Cyprinidae family. The fish is found in the Amur River and Vietnam. The fish is usually 10 cm (3.9 in) long (SL), the largest specimen of the fish ever recorded was 34.6 cm (13.6 in) long (SL).
