Fermented Bean Paste
Fermented bean paste is a category of fermented foods typically made from ground soybeans, which are indigenous to the cuisines of East, South and Southeast Asia. In some cases, such as the production of ''miso'', other varieties of beans, such as broad beans, may also be used.

Asiatic Softshell Turtle
The Asiatic softshell turtle or black-rayed softshell turtle (''Amyda cartilaginea'') is a species of softshell turtle in the Trionychidae family. Despite its name, it is not the only softshell turtle in Asia (most trionychines are Asian). Taxonomy Formerly considered the only extant species within ''Amyda'', a 2014 study found deep genetic divergence within this species and supported splitting it into three distinct species: ''A. cartilaginea sensu stricto'', ''A. ornata'' (the Southeast Asian softshell turtle), and an undescribed species from Borneo. Both ''Amyda cartilaginea'' and ''Amyda ornata'' branch into further subspecies, while ''Amyda'' (unnamed) is a terminal clade in itself.

Borneo, Java, and Sulawesi'') and Amyda cartilaginea maculosa (''found in Sumatra and West Borneo'').'' As for any marked different physical characteristics, ''Amyda cartilaginea cartilaginea'' ...
