jaguar
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, and tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, among 6 distinct biome types spanning the Neotropic and Oceanian realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Distributed across Colombia, Ecuador, and Venezuela. Listed as Near Threatened, this species requires ongoing monitoring to prevent population decline.
Native to Asia, inhabiting ecosystems characteristic of the region.
Found in Taiwan.
jaguar
The largest cat in the Americas, reaching up to 100 kg with a stocky, muscular build and distinctive rosette-patterned coat. Found from Mexico through South America, with strongholds in the Amazon and Pantanal. Powerful swimmers and apex predators, jaguars play a critical role in regulating prey populations. Near Threatened, with range contracting due to deforestation.
Rhizobium gallicum is a nitrogen-fixing alphaproteobacterium in the family Rhizobiaceae, capable of nodulating and fixing nitrogen in symbiosis with various legume host plants in Europe. It was initially isolated from root nodules of bean plants in France (Gaul/Gallia) and shows moderate host specificity compared to some other rhizobia. It contributes to natural soil nitrogen enrichment in agricultural and natural ecosystems.
