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).

Coastal Brown

Habitat

Typically found in virtually all terrestrial and freshwater habitats.

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 Brown

Cassionympha perissinottoi, the coastal brown, is a butterfly in the family Nymphalidae, subfamily Satyrinae, endemic to the coastal regions of South Africa. Satyrines, commonly called browns or ringlets, are typically medium-sized butterflies with cryptic brown and orange wing patterns that blend effectively with grass and dead vegetation in their grassland and woodland edge habitats. Cassionympha perissinottoi inhabits coastal grassland, dune thicket margins, and moist grassy areas along the eastern South African coast where suitable grass species, which serve as larval host plants, are available. The genus Cassionympha is endemic to Africa and comprises a small number of related species adapted to grassland and savanna habitats. Like many satyrid butterflies, the larvae feed on grasses and the adults feed on rotting fruit, dung, or take moisture from wet soil rather than flower nectar. The species is classified as Least Concern by the IUCN, though coastal grassland habitats in South Africa have been significantly reduced through urban development, plantation forestry with invasive pines and eucalypts, and coastal resort development along the KwaZulu-Natal shoreline.
