The Citrus indica, a species endemic to northeastern India, is an endangered plant primarily known by the common name Indian wild orange. This native fruit is historically significant and genetically unique, representing a wild relative of many common citrus fruits we enjoy today.

The Sinarapan (Mistichthys luzonensis) was once so abundant in the Philippines' Lake Buhi that it was scooped up with fine nets. This tiny fish, measuring only about 2.5 centimeters long, is now critically vulnerable, with its primary population now thriving in the remote Lake Manapao.
