Gomphidia pearsoni is a species of dragonfly in the family Gomphidae. It is endemic to Sri Lanka. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
The complex-toothed flying squirrel occurs in the southern Chinese provinces Hubei, Hunan, Guizhou, Sichuan, and Yunnan. The common name refers to the teeth, which differ from those of other species of flying squirrels.
An IUCN Red List Critically Endangered (CR) species is one that has been categorized by the International Union for Conservation of Nature as facing an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild. As of 2021, of the 120,372 species currently tracked by the IUCN, there are 8,404 species that are considered to be Critically Endangered.
Pearson's chaco mouse is a species of rodent in the family Cricetidae. It is found in the Gran Chaco ecoregion of southeastern Bolivia and western Paraguay at elevations up to 400 m. The species is named after American zoologist Oliver Payne Pearson. Its karyotype has 2n = 76 and 78 in the two subspecies. The latter is the highest diploid number of any species in the tribe Phyllotini.
Dryaderces pearsoni is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. Broadly defined, it is found in Bolivia, Brazil, and Peru. However, the nominal taxon includes two species, and true Dryaderces pearsoni is only known with certainty from Bolivia. The specific name pearsoni honors Nathan E. Pearson, an American ichthyologist who made a "splendid collection of amphibians" during an expedition to Bolivia, including the holotype of this species. Common name Pearson's slender-legged treefrog has been coined for the species.
Pearson's tuco-tuco is a species of rodent in the family Ctenomyidae. It is endemic to Uruguay, where it is found at elevations below 200 m. This tuco-tuco constructs burrows with multiple openings containing one to two nests of dried grass; it prefers areas of sandy soil but is somewhat adaptable. It is threatened by loss of habitat to development, agriculture and ranching. Multiple karyotypes have been reported, including 2n = 68–70, FN = 80–88, as well as 2n = 56, FN = 77–79, suggesting the taxon may represent several species. C. dorbignyi appears to be cytogenetically indistinguishable from the 2n = 70 form. The species is named after American zoologist Oliver Payne Pearson.
The Bornean water shrew is a species of mammal in the family Soricidae. It is endemic to Malaysia. Its natural habitat is rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Buettikofer's shrew is a species of mammal in the family Soricidae. It is found in southern Nigeria and scantly present in Ivory Coast, Ghana, Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Flower's shrew is a species of mammal in the family Soricidae. It is endemic to Egypt. Its natural habitat is arable land. It is threatened by habitat loss.
The Cameroonian shrew is a species of mammal in the family Soricidae. It is endemic to Cameroon. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is threatened by habitat loss.
The montane mouse shrew is a species of mammal in the family Soricidae endemic to Uganda. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and swamps. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Pearson's long-clawed shrew is a species of mammal in the family Soricidae. It is monotypic within the genus Solisorex. It is endemic to Sri Lanka. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests and subtropical or tropical dry lowland grassland. It is threatened by habitat loss. It is known as ශ්රී ලංකා නියදිගු මා හික් මීයා in Sinhala.
Gomphidia bredoi is a species of dragonfly in the family Gomphidae. It is found in Angola, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Nigeria, and Uganda. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Gomphidia is a genus of dragonfly in the family Gomphidae. It contains the following species:
Gomphidia quarrei is a species of dragonfly in the family Gomphidae. It is found in Angola, Botswana, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Tanzania, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical dry shrubland, subtropical or tropical moist shrubland, and rivers.
Uramphisopus pearsoni is a species of isopod crustaceans in the family Phreatoicidae. It is only found in Brandum Bay basin in the north of Great Lake, Tasmania.
Virotia neurophylla is a species of plant in the family Proteaceae. It is endemic to New Caledonia. It is threatened by habitat loss. It has recently been transferred to the genus Virotia, which is also endemic to New Caledonia.
D'Orbigny's tuco-tuco is a species of rodent in the family Ctenomyidae, named after French naturalist Alcide d'Orbigny. It is found in northeast Argentina. Its karyotype has 2n = 70, FN = 84–88, which is cytogenetically indistinguishable from some populations of C. pearsoni; the latter taxon may actually represent several species.
The delicate salt flat mouse, Salinomys delicatus, is a sigmodontine rodent species in the family Cricetidae from South America. It is the only species in the genus Salinomys. Its habitat is scrublands bordering salt flats in the Monte Desert area of central western Argentina at elevations around 400 m. The closest relatives of the species are the chaco mice (Andalgalomys).
Gomphidia kodaguensis is a species of dragonfly in the family Gomphidae. It is known only from the Western Ghats of India.
