Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.

Range

Widely distributed across Europe (8 countries), North America (United States), and South America (Ecuador).

Climax Conebush

Habitat

Typically found in diverse terrestrial habitats from tropical forests to temperate regions.

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。

Climax Conebush

The Climax Conebush, Leucadendron uliginosum, is a small to medium shrub in the family Proteaceae endemic to the Cape Floristic Region of South Africa, one of the world's six recognized floral kingdoms and a global biodiversity hotspot. Like other leucadendrons, the Climax Conebush is a resprouting or reseeding fynbos shrub with the characteristic cone-like female inflorescences of the genus, surrounded by colorful floral bracts. The species inhabits wet or seasonally waterlogged fynbos habitats including vlei margins, seeps, and poorly drained flats in the southwestern and southern Cape, growing in nutrient-poor, acidic, sandy soils. It is adapted to the Mediterranean climate of the Cape, with hot dry summers and cool wet winters, and to the periodic fires that are integral to fynbos ecology. The seeds are typically retained in the cone-like structures until released by fire, enabling regeneration after burning. The Climax Conebush faces threats from alien plant invasions, particularly by Acacia and Hakea species that displace native fynbos, as well as habitat conversion and altered fire regimes. It is assessed as a species of conservation concern within the globally significant Cape Floristic Region.
