Achnanthes longipes es una diatomea bentónica pedunculada con células alargadas unidas a sustratos mediante un pedículo de mucílago que le confiere una postura erguida. Habita ambientes marinos costeros y salobres, creciendo sobre rocas, conchas y algas en zonas intermareales. Esta diatomea fotosintética contribuye a las comunidades de biopelículas bentónicas en hábitats costeros marinos.

Lobo gris

El lobo gris (Canis lupus), el cánido silvestre más ampliamente distribuido, se extiende desde América del Norte a través de Eurasia en hábitats diversos que incluyen la tundra, bosques y praderas. Son animales altamente sociales que viven en manadas familiares lideradas por una pareja reproductora dominante. Como depredadores clave, los lobos regulan las poblaciones de presas y moldean profundamente la estructura del ecosistema, como demostró su reintroducción en Yellowstone. Antes muy perseguidos, las poblaciones se están recuperando en muchas regiones.
