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).

Collared Parachute

Habitat

Typically found in forest floors, decomposing wood, and soil ecosystems.

Range

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。

Collared Parachute

The Collared Parachute, known scientifically as <em>Marasmius rotula</em>, is a small saprotrophic fungus belonging to the family Marasmiaceae within the order Agaricales. <em>Marasmius rotula</em> is characterised by its distinctive wheel-like or parachute-shaped cap, which typically features radial gill-like ridges connected to a collar around the stipe rather than attaching directly to it — a feature that gives the species both its common and scientific names. This species typically grows on decomposing leaf litter, dead woody material, and forest floors in deciduous and mixed woodland. It is reported to occur in Belgium, Brazil, Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. As a decomposer, <em>Marasmius rotula</em> plays a role in nutrient cycling within forest ecosystems. Detailed biological traits including typical lifespan measures and physical dimensions are poorly documented for this species in available literature. The Collared Parachute is currently assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List.
