Delfín de Commerson

<em>Cephalorhynchus commersonii</em>, commonly known as Commerson's Dolphin, is a small cetacean in the family Delphinidae. This species is classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List and is notable for its striking black-and-white coloration, which makes it one of the most visually distinctive dolphin species. Commerson's Dolphins typically inhabit coastal and nearshore marine environments of the Southern Hemisphere, particularly around the Falkland Islands, the southern tip of South America, and a geographically isolated population near the Kerguelen Islands in the Indian Ocean. These dolphins are highly social animals, often observed in small groups engaging in acrobatic behaviors near the surface. They typically feed on fish, squid, and crustaceans, often hunting cooperatively in shallow waters and kelp beds. Their average lifespan is approximately 18 years, and they are known for their fast, energetic swimming. Commerson's Dolphins are sometimes caught as bycatch in fishing nets, posing a localized conservation concern despite their overall Least Concern status.

Higróforo amarillo cónico

Hygrocybe acutoconica es un hongo higrocíbico de la familia Hygrophoraceae, evaluado como Preocupación Menor (LC). Produce cuerpos fructíferos agudamente cónicos de color amarillo brillante a naranja en pastizales antiguos sin fertilizar y se considera un indicador de la integridad ecológica del pastizal. Está ampliamente distribuido pero localmente depende de hábitats de pastizal estables y no mejorados durante largo tiempo.
