Alpaca

The Alpaca (Vicugna pacos) is a species in the genus Vicugna. Typically found in diverse terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.

バエオミセス・プラコフィルス（Baeomyces placophyllus）は酸性裸地・荒れ地・ヒース・高山帯の開けた環境の鉱質土壌に生育する痂状地衣類で、厚みのある鱗片状の葉状体から分岐しない柄上に淡い肉色の子嚢盤を形成する特徴的な形態を持つ。ヨーロッパ温帯〜亜寒帯地域の分布域は土壌安定化・草地改良による生育地の消失で脅威を受けており、絶滅危惧（EN）に分類される。裸地開拓者（パイオニア）としての生態的役割を持ちながら、現在は保護が必要な希少種となっている。
