Hyloscirtus diabolus
The Hyloscirtus diabolus is a frog. It lives in Peru. Scientists have seen it in exactly two places: cloud forests on the east side of the Corillera Central mountains. This frog is large for a tree frog. Adults frogs can be 82.3–89.2 mm long from nose to rear end not counting the legs. This frog has thick, strong front legs. Scientists saw large vomerine teeth in its jaws. The skin of the back and sides is gray-brown or dark gray in color. There is some pink and orange color on the insides of the legs. The skin of the belly is red-gray in color. The climbing disks on the toes are brown in color. Sometimes there are tiny yellow spots on the toes. The iris of the eye is dark red in color. The scientists named the frog "diabolus" after the Devil. Its strong front legs, gray skin, bumpy spine, large teeth, and especially its red eyes made it look fearsome to them. It reminded them of the way artists show the Devil.

Scops owl
Scops owls are in the family Strigidae. They are the genus Otus. Scops owls live in the Old World. "Otus" has more species in it than any other genus of owls. There are 59 species. Scops owls are brown, grayish, or reddish in color, but they can have lighter colors on the belly or face. This helps to make them hard to see when they sit in trees. Sometimes, owls in the same species look different from each other. Scops owls are small and move easily. Female scops owls are usually larger than males in the same species. Taxonomy. The genus "Otus" was first used in 1769. The Welsh naturalist Thomas Pennant made it for the Indian scops owl ("O. bakkamoena"). The name comes from the Latin word "" and the Greek word "ōtos" meaning horned or eared owl (cf. οὖς, ὠτός, "ear"). Marie Jules César Savigny made the English name "Scops" in 1809. and it comes from the Greek "skōps" meaning small owl. History. Scientists have changed their minds over the years about which owls should be in "Otus" and which owls are only their relatives. For most of the 20th century, scientists said screech owls were also scops owls. But they changed their minds. DNA evidence helped them decide Now, screech owls are in their own genus, "Megascops". Screech owls live in the Americas, and they act differently, live in different places, have different body shapes, and have different DNA from scops owls. By the mid-19th century, scientists knew that "Otus" had more than one genus in it. First, in 1848, scientists made a second genus for screech owls, "Megascops". In 1850s, they made other genera for other owls that had been in "Otus". They made "Macabra", "Ptilopsis", "Gymnasio", "Gymnoglaux", and "Pyrroglaux" for different groups of owls. In the early 20th century, scientists liked the idea of putting species in a few big groups instead of more small groups. The 3rd edition of the American Ornithologists' Union (AOU) checklist in 1910 put the screech owls back in "Otus". Although not all scientists agreed about this, it was the most common way to think about owl groups for most of the 20th century. In 1988, some scientists tried to put back all the genera from 140 years earlier by treating them as subgenuses inside "Otus". But this did not make sense. It did not match the evolutionary and phylogenetic information. In the late 20th century, scientists started to use DNA to tell how animals were related to each other. This changed things for "Otus". In 1999, the first mtDNA cytochrome "b" study of these owls showed that the separate groups were really different genera and not only subgenera. The scientists said that most of the genera proposed around 1850 were right or close to right. Not all scientists agreed at first, but they did more and more DNA studies. In time, almost all scientists came to trust the DNA studies. In 2003, the AOU formally decided to take screech owls out of "Otus" and put them in the genus "Megascops". Species. The genus "Otus" has 59 species (including 3 extinct species): Two extinct species are sometimes placed in the genus: Possible species. On May 14, 1994, scientists heard what sounded like an "Otus" owl calling at about 1,000 meters above sea level south of the summit of Camiguin in the Philippines. No scientists had found any scops owls on that island before. Sometimes people discover new species of "Otus". There may be another "Otus" owl living on the island. Formerly placed here. The fossil record for scops owls does not tell us everything. Some older writings say many species of "Otus" owls are now extinct, but maybe those owls really belong in different genera: Evolution. People found scops owl fossils that look like the Eurasian scops-owl on the Spanish island Majorca. The scops and screech owls probably both evolved during the Miocene (like many owls). They probably became separate groups 5 million years ago. Their common ancestor was probably a small owl with ear tufts and feathers on at least the upper tarsus (leg). Ecology and behaviour. Scops owls voices sound like whistling or a row of high-pitched hoots, fewer than four hoots per second. The owls call like this for social interaction or to scare away other animals. But different species of scops owls sound different from each other. Human beings usually know scops owls are nearby because they hear them calling. Human beings can tell scops owl species apart by their voices. Some, like the Serendib scops owl ("Otus thilohoffmanni"), were discovered because birdcall experts could tell their voices were new to them. Scops owls hunt from perches in landscapes with only a few trees. They live more in areas with old trees with hollows in them. The animals they like to eat live in hollows. For example, insects, reptiles, and small mammals such as bats and mice and other small birds. The owls will also eat earthworms, amphibians, and aquatic animals without bones. Scops owls can hear very well, which helps them find animals to eat. They also have strong claws and a curved bill, both of which help them tear prey into small pieces that they can eat. Most scops owls live alone, lay and sit on their eggs in a nest in a hole in a tree. They do not dig the holes themselves. Instead, they go into holes that have been made by other animals. The female sits on the eggs and the male brings her food. These birds are monogamous, and both parents take care of the chicks.

Lake Natron
Lake Natron is a salt or alkaline lake in north Ngorongoro District of Arusha Region in Tanzania. It is in the Gregory Rift, which is the eastern branch of the East African Rift. The lake is inside the Lake Natron Basin, a Ramsar Site wetland of international significance. A small part of the lake is in Kenya. The lake is mainly fed by the Southern Ewaso Ng'iro River, which rises in central Kenya, and by mineral-rich hot springs. It is less than deep. Its width depends on its water level. The lake is a maximum of long and wide. In the surrounding area rain is infrequent. Most of the rain occurs between December and May. The total rainfall is about per year. Temperatures at the lake are frequently above . High levels of evaporation have left behind natron (sodium carbonate decahydrate) and trona (sodium sesquicarbonate dihydrate). The alkalinity of the lake can reach a pH of greater than 12. The surrounding bedrock is made of alkaline, sodium-dominated trachyte lavas that were laid down during the Pleistocene period. The lavas have significant amounts of carbonate but very low calcium and magnesium levels. This has allowed the lake to concentrate into a caustic alkaline brine. The lake is home to a number of wading birds, notably flamingoes. They feed on small crustaceans that live in the lake. In some areas, all three species of Alcolapia can be found. Alcolapia are small fish.
