Both are critically endangered. Extinct species include the European ass, "Equus hydruntinus", which became extinct during the Neolithic, and the North African wild ass, "Equus africanus atlanticus", which became extinct in Roman times.

Gloeoporus africanus (allantoid), measuring 3.8–4.2 by 0.6–0.7 μm. Gloeoporus africanus Gloeoporus africanus is a species of crust fungus in the family Irpicaceae.
