Habitat & Geographic Range
Feigenbaum
Typically found in diverse terrestrial habitats from tropical forests to temperate regions.
Widely distributed across Africa (8 countries), Asia (Qatar, Taiwan, Yemen), Europe (18 countries), North America (Canada, United States), Oceania and the Pacific (5 countries), and South America (5 countries).
Atlantische Bergschrecke
Typically found in virtually all terrestrial and freshwater habitats.
Feigenbaum
The Common Fig (<em>Ficus carica</em>) is a deciduous tree or large shrub belonging to the genus Ficus within the family Moraceae. It is widely recognised for its broad, lobed leaves and distinctive edible fruit, the fig, which is a syconium — a fleshy, hollow structure enclosing numerous small flowers. The species is typically found in diverse terrestrial habitats from tropical forests to temperate regions, and has a wide geographic distribution spanning Africa including eight countries, Asia including Qatar, Taiwan, and Yemen, 18 European countries, North America including Canada and the United States, Oceania and the Pacific including five countries, and South America including five countries. <em>Ficus carica</em> has not been evaluated under IUCN criteria. It has been cultivated for thousands of years as a food crop across the Mediterranean region and western Asia, and is considered one of the earliest domesticated plants. Pollination typically involves a specialised mutualistic relationship with fig wasps. Biological traits including average lifespan and body dimensions in the wild remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
Atlantische Bergschrecke
The Common Mountain Bush-cricket (<em>Antaxius pedestris</em>) is an insect in the genus <em>Antaxius</em>, belonging to the family Tettigoniidae within the order Orthoptera. This species is classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, suggesting its populations are currently stable. It is typically found across virtually all terrestrial and freshwater habitats within its range. As a bush-cricket, <em>Antaxius pedestris</em> belongs to a group characterized by long antennae, typically exceeding body length, and the ability to produce sound through stridulation — rubbing the wings together. Bush-crickets are generally omnivorous, feeding on plant material, small invertebrates, and occasionally other insects. The "mountain" designation in its common name reflects an association with elevated, rocky or montane habitats, which are typical for members of this genus in Europe. Detailed biological traits such as average lifespan, body dimensions, and weight are not widely documented for this species in available records. Further taxonomic and ecological research may better define the full distribution and habitat preferences of this species.
