Habitat & Geographic Range
Águila cabeza blanca
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, and flooded grasslands and savannas, among 10 distinct biome types spanning the Neotropic and Palearctic realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Widely distributed across Europe (8 countries), North America (United States), and South America (Ecuador).
collared notchwort
Native to Europe and North America, inhabiting ecosystems characteristic of the region.
Distributed across Norway, Sweden, and United States.
Águila cabeza blanca
El ave nacional de los Estados Unidos y símbolo del éxito conservacionista americano, el águila cabeza blanca tiene una envergadura de hasta 2,4 metros y habita bosques y humedales próximos a aguas abiertas en toda Norteamérica. Casi extinta en la década de 1960 por el envenenamiento con DDT y la caza, se recuperó de forma notable gracias a las prohibiciones de pesticidas y la Ley de Especies en Peligro.
collared notchwort
The Collared Notchwort, known scientifically as <em>Mesoptychia collaris</em>, is a liverwort belonging to the family Jungermanniaceae within the class Jungermanniopsida. <em>Mesoptychia collaris</em> is a bryophyte — a non-vascular land plant — and represents one of the leafy liverworts, characterised by flattened, leaf-like structures arranged along creeping stems. This species is associated with moist, shaded habitats typical of temperate regions, including areas of Europe and North America. It is reported to occur in Norway, Sweden, and the United States. Like other liverworts, <em>Mesoptychia collaris</em> plays a role in moisture retention and habitat structure in the ecosystems it inhabits. Detailed biological traits including typical lifespan measures and physical dimensions are poorly documented for this species in available literature. The Collared Notchwort is currently assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List.
