On the move: sloths and their epibionts as model mobile ecosystems

Biological Reviews, Volume 96, Issue 6, Page 2638-2660, December 2021., 2021
ABSTRACT Sloths are unusual mobile ecosystems, containing a high diversity of epibionts living and growing in their fur as they climb slowly through the canopies of tropical forests. These epibionts include poorly studied algae, arthropods, fungi, and bacteria, making sloths likely reservoirs of unexplored biodiversity.

Diversity and Distribution Patterns of Endolichenic Fungi in Jeju Island, South Korea [PDF]

Sustainability, 2020
Lichens are symbiotic organisms containing diverse microorganisms. Endolichenic fungi (ELF) are one of the inhabitants living in lichen thalli, and have potential ecological and industrial applications due to their various secondary metabolites. As the function of endophytic fungi on the plant ecology and ecosystem sustainability, ELF may have an ...
