Lampropholis mirabilis, the saxicoline sunskink, is a species of skink, a lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Queensland in Australia. [2]
Lampropholis is a genus of skinks, commonly known as sunskinks, in the lizard subfamily Eugongylinae of the family Scincidae. The genus Lampropholis was previously found to belong to a clade with the genera Niveoscincus, Leiolopisma and others of the Eugongylus group within Lygosominae. All species of Lampropholis are endemic to Australia. For similar skinks see genera Bassiana, Pseudemoia, and Niveoscincus.
Nepenthes rowaniae is a species of pitcher plant endemic to the Cape York Peninsula, Australia. It is closely related to N. mirabilis and was once considered an extreme form of this species.
Nepenthes tomoriana is a species of pitcher plant endemic to Sulawesi, where it grows at an elevation of 0–500 m above sea level.
Nepenthes smilesii is a tropical pitcher plant native to northeastern Thailand, southern Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam. Nepenthes smilesii can tolerate an extended dry season and is most common in open, sandy savannah and grassland.
Lampropholis delicata, the delicate skink, dark-flecked garden sun skink, garden skink, delicate garden skink, rainbow skink or plague skink, or the metallic skink is native to Australia and invasive in New Zealand and Hawaii where it is commonly found in gardens. The species is known for their color dimorphism between males and females; striped morphs and non-striped morphs exist in this species, however the stripe is less pronounced in males. This species' diet consists of a wide range of prey, such as spiders, bees, larvae, and termites. Mating occurs in the late summer and generally one clutch of 2 to 4 eggs are laid per year by each female.
The Ussuri shrew, also known as the giant shrew, is a species of shrew found in Northeast Asia. An adult Ussuri shrew has a total length including the tail of 137 to 170 mm. It is found in valleys and on the forested slopes of mountains in the Korean Peninsula, northeastern China, and the Russian Far East. It is rarely observed, and its ecology is largely unknown.
Sepia mirabilis is a species of cuttlefish native to the western Indian Ocean. Specifically, it is present off Sokotra Island, and its natural range probably stretches to the east coast of Africa. It lives at depths to 50 m.
The white-throated jay, also known as the Omiltemi jay, is a species of bird in the family Corvidae. It is endemic to the Sierra Madre del Sur ranges of Mexico.
Carinascincus metallicus, the metallic cool-skink or metallic skink is a species of skink in the family Scincidae. It is endemic to Australia, found in southern Victoria, as well as in Tasmania where it is the most widespread and common lizard, occurring on many offshore islands in Bass Strait as well as the mainland. It gives birth to live young. It is highly variable in colour and pattern, and may be a complex of closely related species.
Vimba mirabilis, also known as the Menderes vimba or Menderes bream, is a freshwater fish species in the family Cyprinidae. It is endemic to Turkey, specifically around Büyük Menderes River. It is still abundant in reservoirs and therefore considered as of least concern for conservation measures.
Lampropholis adonis, also known commonly as the diamond shielded sunskink and Ingram's litter skink, is a species of skink, a lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Queensland in Australia.
Lampropholis amicula, the friendly sunskink, is a species of skink, a lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Queensland and New South Wales in Australia.
Lampropholis caligula, also known commonly as the montane sunskink or the montane sun skink, is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to New South Wales in Australia.
Lampropholis coggeri, also known commonly as the northern sun skink and the rainforest sunskink, is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Queensland in Australia.

Lampropholis couperi, commonly known as the plain-backed sunskink, is a species of skink, a lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Queensland, Australia.
Lampropholis elongata, the long sunskink or elongate sunskink, is a species of skink, a lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to eastern Australia.
Lampropholis robertsi, the grey-bellied sunskink, is a species of skink, a lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Queensland in Australia.
Saproscincus czechurai, also known commonly as Czechura's litter-skink, Czechura's skink, and the wedge-snouted shadeskink, is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Queensland in Australia.
Pseudolestes mirabilis is a species of damselfly. As a result of molecular phylogenetic studies by Bybee et al. in 2021, its monotypic genus Pseudolestes is now in its own family, Pseudolestidae.
