Habitat & Geographic Range
ハクトウワシ
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, and flooded grasslands and savannas, among 10 distinct biome types spanning the Neotropic and Palearctic realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Widely distributed across Europe (8 countries), North America (United States), and South America (Ecuador).
Club-fruited Cola
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。
Club-fruited Cola
Cola clavata is a tropical tree in the family Malvaceae (formerly Sterculiaceae) native to the rainforests of West and Central Africa. The genus Cola comprises approximately 125 species, mostly trees and shrubs distributed across the African continent, and is well known for the caffeine-containing cola nut (C. nitida and C. acuminata) used in traditional ceremonies and as a flavoring. C. clavata is named for its club-shaped fruits, which are follicular. Like other Cola species, it is an understory to mid-canopy tree of lowland and submontane tropical rainforest. The species is listed as Endangered on the IUCN Red List, reflecting ongoing habitat loss due to deforestation for agriculture, logging, and human settlement in its West and Central African range countries. African rainforests harbor exceptional tree diversity, and many cola species have restricted ranges within specific forest blocks. Pollinators of Cola species are poorly understood but likely include small insects attracted to the apetalous flowers that lack petals and instead have colorful sepals. Propagation and ex situ conservation of C. clavata have not been widely pursued, underscoring the importance of protecting its remaining forest habitat.
