Halsband-Springaffe

The Collared Titi, known scientifically as <em>Cheracebus torquatus</em>, is a small New World monkey belonging to the family Pitheciidae. <em>Cheracebus torquatus</em> is characterised by its typically dense, soft fur and a pale or white collar or band around the neck and throat region, which gives the species its common and scientific names. Titi monkeys are generally arboreal and highly social, typically living in small family groups occupying territories in forested habitats. They are known for their distinctive pair-bonding behaviour and loud territorial vocalisations. The species inhabits diverse terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Detailed biological traits including typical lifespan, body length, and weight are poorly documented for this species in available literature. The Collared Titi is currently assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List.

Französisches Leimkraut

<em>Silene gallica</em>, commonly known as the common catchfly, is a plant species that was historically distributed across Africa, Asia, Europe, the Americas, and Oceania. It typically occupied diverse terrestrial habitats, often found in disturbed ground, arable fields, roadsides, and sandy or rocky soils in temperate and Mediterranean regions. The species is classified as Extinct on the IUCN Red List, indicating that it is no longer known to exist in the wild. Common catchfly belongs to the genus <em>Silene</em> within the family Caryophyllaceae and was a slender annual herb notable for its small, often pink or white flowers and sticky stems. The loss of this species is attributed to habitat degradation, agricultural intensification, and the reduction of traditional farming practices that once maintained the open, disturbed habitats it depended upon. Biological traits such as average lifespan, plant height, and mass of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. Its extinction represents a permanent loss of biodiversity across its formerly wide global range.
