The kinkajou is a tropical rainforest mammal of the family Procyonidae related to olingos, coatis, raccoons, and the ringtail and cacomistle. It is the only member of the genus Potos and is also known as the "honey bear". Kinkajous are arboreal, a lifestyle they evolved independently; they are not closely related to any other tree-dwelling mammal group.
Aspergillus flavus is a saprotrophic and pathogenic fungus with a cosmopolitan distribution. It is best known for its colonization of cereal grains, legumes, and tree nuts. Postharvest rot typically develops during harvest, storage, and/or transit. Its specific name flavus derives from the Latin meaning yellow, a reference to the frequently observed colour of the spores. A. flavus infections can occur while hosts are still in the field (preharvest), but often show no symptoms (dormancy) until postharvest storage and/or transport. In addition to causing preharvest and postharvest infections, many strains produce significant quantities of toxic compounds known as mycotoxins, which, when consumed, are toxic to mammals. A. flavus is also an opportunistic human and animal pathogen, causing aspergillosis in immunocompromised individuals.
Potanthus confucius, the Chinese dart or Confucian dart, is a butterfly belonging to the family Hesperiidae. They are found from Sri Lanka, India to China and Japan and down to Sumatra and Java in Indonesia. Some museum specimens have also been reported to be from Palawan in the Philippines, but due to the absence of the species in Borneo, it is possible that these were mislabeled or misidentified.
Potanthus pallida, commonly known as the pallid dart or pale dart, is a butterfly belonging to the family Hesperiidae found in India.
Potanthus palnia, commonly known as the Palni dart, is a butterfly belonging to the family Hesperiidae found in India and Indochina.
Potanthus pava, commonly known as the Pava dart or yellow dart, is a butterfly belonging to the family Hesperiidae. It is found from southern India to central China, Taiwan, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Sulawesi, Indonesia.
Potanthus pseudomaesa, commonly known as the Indian dart, is a butterfly belonging to the family Hesperiidae found in India and Sri Lanka. The larvae are known to feed on Axonopus compressus.
Oncom is one of the traditional staple foods of West Java (Sundanese) cuisine of Indonesia. There are two kinds of oncom: red oncom and black oncom. Oncom is closely related to tempeh; both are foods fermented using mold.
Potanthus is a large genus of skipper butterflies. They are commonly known as darts. They are found from South Asia to East Asia, and down to maritime Southeast Asia. It includes about 35 species, all of which look very similar to each other and are often only reliably identifiable through the examination of the male genitalia.
The Taractrocerini are a tribe in the Hesperiinae subfamily of skipper butterflies.
Crocus flavus, known as yellow crocus or Dutch yellow crocus, is a species of flowering plant in the genus Crocus of the family Iridaceae. It grows wild on the slopes of Greece, former Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, Romania and northwestern Turkey, with fragrant bright orange-yellow flowers which Tennyson likened to a fire. It is a small crocus (5–6 cm, despite the names of some cultivars, compared to the Giant Dutch crocuses. Its cultivars are used as ornamental plants.
Myotis flavus is a species of mouse-eared bat. It used to be assigned to Myotis formosus.
Potanthus serina, the large dart, is a species of butterfly of the family Hesperiidae. It is found on the Andamans, as well as in southern Burma, Singapore and the Philippines. The habitat consists of grassy areas and mangrove areas.
Geophilus flavus is a species of centipede in the family Geophilidae. The Geophilidae are called soil centipedes. It is terrestrial and commonly found at seashore locations.
Potanthus niobe is a species of skipper butterflies endemic to the Philippines. It contains two subspecies:
Potanthus omaha, commonly known as the lesser dart, is a species of skipper butterflies. It is found in Australia, Indochina, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, India and Sulawesi. It includes the following subspecies:
Phaius flavus is a species of orchid in the genus Phaius described by John Lindley in 1831. It is widespread across much of Asia as well as New Guinea, New Caledonia, Samoa and Vanuatu.
Aspergillus parasiticus is a fungus belonging to the genus Aspergillus. This species is an unspecialized saprophytic mold, mostly found outdoors in areas of rich soil with decaying plant material as well as in dry grain storage facilities. Often confused with the closely related species, A. flavus, A. parasiticus has defined morphological and molecular differences. Aspergillus parasiticus is one of three fungi able to produce the mycotoxin, aflatoxin, one of the most carcinogenic naturally occurring substances. Environmental stress can upregulate aflatoxin production by the fungus, which can occur when the fungus is growing on plants that become damaged due to exposure to poor weather conditions, during drought, by insects, or by birds. In humans, exposure to A. parasiticus toxins can cause delayed development in children and produce serious liver diseases and/or hepatic carcinoma in adults. The fungus can also cause the infection known as aspergillosis in humans and other animals. A. parasiticus is of agricultural importance due to its ability to cause disease in corn, peanut, and cottonseed.
