Protium pittieri (Rose) Engl. | |
Protium pittieri (Spanish: alcanfor) is a species of plant in the Burseraceae family. It is found in Costa Rica and Panama. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Herring are forage fish, mostly belonging to the family Clupeidae.
A near-threatened species is a species which has been categorized as "Near Threatened" (NT) by the International Union for Conservation of Nature as that may be vulnerable to endangerment in the near future, but it does not currently qualify for the threatened status.
Protium is a genus of more than 140 species of flowering plants in the family Burseraceae. It is native to the Neotropics, Madagascar, Papua New Guinea, Indonesia and southern Asia from Pakistan east to Vietnam. The genus had been included in Bursera, but is distinct, being most closely related to Crepidospermum and Tetragastris.
Ichthyomys is a genus of semiaquatic Neotropical rodents in the family Cricetidae. It contains the following species:
Pittier's crab-eating rat is a species of semiaquatic rodent in the family Cricetidae. It is endemic to Venezuela. The natural habitats of this species are rivers and swamps. Its karyotype has 2n = 92 and FNa = 98. This was previously thought to be the highest chromosome number known for a mammal, but it has since been found that the plains viscacha rat or red viscacha rat has 4x = 2n = 102.
Macrolobium pittieri is a species of plant in the family Fabaceae. It is found in Colombia and Panama. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Eschweilera pittieri is a species of woody plant in the Lecythidaceae family. It is found in Colombia, Ecuador, and Panama.
Allobates pittieri is a species of frog in the family Aromobatidae. It is endemic to northern Venezuela where it is known from the Venezuelan Coastal Range and northeastern part of the Cordillera de Mérida. Its type locality is in the Henri Pittier National Park. The species is found in humid lowland to lower montane forest, usually very near rivers and streams where it breeds.
Leptinaria is a genus of small tropical air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Achatinidae.
Licania is a genus of over 200 species of trees and shrubs in the family Chrysobalanaceae. Species are found naturally occurring in Neotropical forests from southern Mexico to Brazil and the Lesser Antilles. Due to increased deforestation and loss of habitat, several species have declined, some markedly so, and L. caldasiana from Colombia appears to have gone extinct in recent years. Many species are either rare or restricted in distribution and therefore potentially threatened with future extinction.
Protium asperum is a species of plant in the Burseraceae family. It is found in Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Panama, Peru, and possibly Bolivia.
Protium attenuatum is a species of plant in the Burseraceae family. It is found in Dominica, Guadeloupe, Jamaica, Martinique, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.
Protium connarifolium is a species of plant in the Burseraceae family. It is found in Malaysia and the Philippines.
Protium correae is a species of plant in the Burseraceae family. It is found in Colombia, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Panama. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Protium inconforme is a species of plant in the Burseraceae family. It is endemic to Panama. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Protium panamense is a species of plant in the Burseraceae family. It is found in Costa Rica and Panama. It is becoming rare due to habitat loss.
Tocoyena pittieri is a species of plant in the family Rubiaceae. It is found in Colombia, Costa Rica, Honduras, and Panama.
Trichilia pittieri is a species of plant in the family Meliaceae. It is endemic to Costa Rica.
Annona pittieri is a species of plant in the family Annonaceae. It is native to Costa Rica and Panamá. John Donnell Smith, the American taxonomist who first formally described the species, named it after Henri François Pittier, the Swiss botanist who collected specimen he examined.
