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.

Xylaria corniformis es un ascomiceto carbonáceo en forma de maza que produce estrómalos negros, firmes, en forma de cuerno o asta de ciervo, sobre madera en descomposición en hábitats forestales tropicales y subtropicales. Es un descomponedor saprotrófico de la madera que contribuye a la degradación de la lignocelulosa en los ecosistemas forestales. Clasificado como En Peligro, las amenazas incluyen la deforestación tropical y la pérdida de hábitats de bosque antiguo.
