Apium virus Y Apium virus Y "Apium virus Y" (ApVY) is a plant pathogenic virus in the genus "Potyvirus" and the virus family "Potyviridae". Apium virus Y is a recently described member of the potyvirus family. It was first found in Australia in 2002 in poison hemlock ("Conium maculatum": an immigrant weed in Australia). A survey of native and weed species in the family Apiaceae found ApVY to be widespread in Australia. In addition, this survey and others found two other potyviruses. One was a well-known potyvirus infecting the Apiaceae, "Celery mosaic virus" (CeMV). CeMV has been found in celery ("Apium graveolens") crops
Rockstone poison dart frog Rockstone poison dart frog The Rockstone poison dart frog ("Dendrobates nubeculosus") is a poorly known species of dendrobatid frogs endemic to Guyana. As it is known from only one specimen, very little information is currently available on "D. nubeculosus". It has been suggested to be one of the most poorly known species in the world. "D. nubeculosus" is a small to medium-sized poison dart frog; larger than many of its contemporary "Ranitomeya" species, but smaller than the other members of the genus "Dendrobates". The holotype specimen measures 2.5 centimetres in length, and the species' size range is unknown. It is
