ハクトウワシ

アメリカの国鳥であり保全の成功を象徴するハクトウワシは翼開長が最大2.4 mに達し、北米全域の水辺近くの森林や湿地に生息する。強力な空中捕食者兼腐肉食者で魚を主食とするが、水鳥や腐肉も捕食する。DDT汚染と狩猟によって1960年代にほぼ絶滅に瀕したが、農薬の使用禁止と絶滅危惧種法の施行により劇的に回復した。

Chrysochromulina inornamenta is a marine haptophyte microalga in the genus Chrysochromulina, class Prymnesiophyceae. The species epithet inornamenta — meaning unornamented — is particularly notable within a genus where most species are distinguished by elaborate scale ultrastructure. This name suggests that C. inornamenta either lacks the complex scale ornamentation typical of its congeners or possesses unusually simple scale morphology, making it an atypical member of the genus and potentially useful for understanding the evolution of scale complexity in haptophytes. C. inornamenta has been recorded from Norwegian and Swedish coastal marine waters, the primary region from which Chrysochromulina species diversity has been characterized through electron microscopy surveys. Norwegian and Swedish coastal environments include productive fjord systems and shelf waters supporting rich microplankton communities. Like other members of the genus, C. inornamenta is presumed to be a photoautotrophic or mixotrophic nanoplankton organism, capable of photosynthesis using chlorophylls a and c and associated carotenoid pigments. It possesses the characteristic haptophyte haptonema alongside two flagella. The haptonema coiling behavior distinguishes Chrysochromulina from the related genus Prymnesium. C. inornamenta has not been formally assessed under the IUCN Red List framework and carries a conservation status of Not Evaluated. Its existence highlights that even within a well-studied genus like Chrysochromulina, morphological diversity encompasses both highly ornamented and comparatively plain cellular phenotypes.
