Common Flat-body
<em>Agonopterix heracliana</em> is a moth belonging to the family Depressariidae within the order Lepidoptera. Commonly known as the common flat-body, this species is named for the flattened resting posture characteristic of the genus Agonopterix. The species is classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, with no indication of significant population decline. <em>Agonopterix heracliana</em> is distributed across northwestern Europe, with documented occurrences in Belgium, Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. Larvae of this species are typically associated with plants in the family Apiaceae, particularly hogweed (Heracleum sphondylium) and related umbellifers, upon which they feed while sheltering in rolled or folded leaves. Adults are typically brownish with subtle markings and are active from late summer through winter and early spring, overwintering as adults — an unusual life history trait among moths. The species inhabits hedgerows, woodland margins, and meadows where its host plants are abundant. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
Inseparable cabecinegro
El inseparable de collar amarillo (Agapornis personatus) es un pequeño loro restringido a las zonas áridas interiores del norte de Tanzania, caracterizado por su llamativo collar amarillo y frente azul-violácea. Vive en grupos en la sabana arbustiva y es muy popular como ave de compañía, por lo que individuos escapados se han establecido en diversas partes del mundo. Figura como Preocupación Menor (LC) en la Lista Roja de la UICN.
