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).
coastal beggarticks
Typically found in diverse terrestrial habitats from tropical forests to temperate regions.
Found in Canada.
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。
coastal beggarticks
Bidens hyperborea, the coastal beggarticks, is a rare annual herb in the family Asteraceae native to coastal wetland habitats of eastern Canada and the northeastern United States, where it occurs in salt marsh margins, tidal river banks, and brackish wetland edges. The species belongs to a complex of annual Bidens species adapted to disturbed, muddy, or seasonally flooded habitats, and can be difficult to distinguish from related taxa. Like other beggarticks, it produces small yellow flower heads followed by barbed achenes equipped with two to four awns, which catch onto fur, feathers, or clothing for animal-mediated seed dispersal, a strategy reflected in the common name. Bidens hyperborea is uncommon to rare throughout its range and is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN, though it is considered a species of conservation concern in several states and provinces where it occurs. Coastal wetland habitats in eastern North America have experienced substantial reduction through filling, agricultural drainage, and development over the past century, and ongoing sea-level rise combined with saltwater intrusion threatens to alter the brackish wetland habitats where this species persists. The genus Bidens is distributed globally across temperate and tropical wetland habitats.
