Clustered Mushroom

Agaricus cappellianus is a saprotrophic agaric fungus in the family Agaricaceae, the family containing the cultivated button mushroom (A. bisporus). Like other members of the genus Agaricus, A. cappellianus produces a cap with free gills that start out white or pink and darken to brown or blackish-brown as the spores mature. The stipe bears an annulus (ring) and is separate from the cap at maturity. A. cappellianus is known primarily from Europe, where it grows in grassy habitats, woodland edges, and gardens. The genus Agaricus is large, with hundreds of species globally, and field identification can be challenging. Important identification characters include cap color and texture, flesh-bruising reactions (yellowing or reddening), smell (anise-like vs. phenolic), spore color and size, and stipe characteristics. Some Agaricus species are edible and prized, while others contain phenolic compounds that cause gastrointestinal upset. Formal IUCN conservation status has not been assessed for A. cappellianus. The species has not been widely studied, and limited information is available on its ecology, host range, and distribution.

Orca común

El mayor miembro de la familia de los delfínidos, la orca (Orcinus orca) puede alcanzar hasta 9 metros de longitud y 6 toneladas de peso, y se encuentra en todos los océanos desde el Ártico hasta el Antártico. Es un depredador apex que vive en grupos matrilineales con dialectos distintos, estrategias de caza y tradiciones culturales que difieren entre poblaciones. Algunas poblaciones se especializan en peces, otras en mamíferos marinos. Sin depredadores naturales, las orcas ocupan la cima de todas las cadenas tróficas marinas que habitan.
