cedrón del monte

Common bee brush (<em>Aloysia gratissima</em>) is a flowering shrub native to a diverse range of terrestrial tropical and temperate habitats. Its documented range includes Brazil and South Africa, reflecting a disjunct distribution across the Southern Hemisphere. The plant is a member of the family Verbenaceae and is known for its small, fragrant white flowers that attract bees and other pollinators, lending it the common name bee brush. <em>Aloysia gratissima</em> typically grows in open scrublands, forest margins, and disturbed areas, often tolerating poor soils and variable moisture conditions. Its aromatic foliage has been used in traditional medicine and as a flavoring agent in certain regions. The species is generally drought-tolerant and may form dense thickets in suitable environments. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.

Jaguar

El felino más grande de las Américas, alcanzando hasta 100 kg con una constitución robusta y musculosa y un pelaje con rosetas características. Se encuentra desde México hasta América del Sur, con núcleos poblacionales en el Amazonas y el Pantanal. Nadadores poderosos y depredadores apex, los jaguares desempeñan un papel fundamental en la regulación de las poblaciones de presas. Categorizado como Casi Amenazado, su área de distribución se contrae debido a la deforestación.
