Mango à cravate noire

A large, striking hummingbird of tropical forests from southern Mexico to Argentina, black-throated mangos have dramatic sexual dimorphism — males display glittering black throat and breast with violet and green flanks and a bold purple tail, while females are white below with a central black stripe. Inhabiting forest edges, clearings, and gardens, they aggressively defend flowering trees. Males perform spectacular aerial display flights at treetop height. Listed as Least Concern across their broad neotropical range.

pin de hoop

<em>Araucaria cunninghamii</em>, the colonial pine or hoop pine, is a large coniferous tree in the ancient family Araucariaceae, native to Australia and also cultivated or naturalised in India, Libya, and South Africa. This species inhabits temperate and boreal forests at higher elevations, where it often forms a prominent emergent layer in subtropical and tropical rainforest communities in Queensland and New Guinea. Hoop pine is one of Australia's most commercially important softwood timber species, valued for its straight grain, durability, and workability. Trees can grow to considerable heights, with tall trunks characterised by horizontally spreading branch whorls that give the species a distinctive silhouette. <em>Araucaria cunninghamii</em> is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN. The genus <em>Araucaria</em> has ancient origins, with fossil records extending to the Jurassic period, making it a living relic of Gondwanan flora. Seeds of hoop pine are consumed by birds and other fauna in its native range, contributing to limited seed dispersal. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
