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。

Colt's-foot Groundling

<em>Scrobipalpula tussilaginis</em>, the colts-foot groundling, is a gelechiid moth in the family Gelechiidae recorded from Belgium, Denmark, and Sweden, with occurrence in terrestrial and freshwater habitats. This species has not been evaluated by the IUCN. The common name indicates a larval association with coltsfoot (<em>Tussilago farfara</em>), a widespread ruderal Asteraceae of disturbed habitats, roadsides, and stream banks across temperate Europe. Gelechiid moths are a highly diverse family with the majority of species being leaf miners, stem borers, or seed feeders in their larval stage, making them important but often overlooked components of herbivore communities in temperate grasslands and disturbed habitats. <em>Scrobipalpula tussilaginis</em> adults are small, cryptically patterned moths, as is typical of the family Gelechiidae. Their small size and nocturnal habits make them difficult to survey without targeted light trapping or larval host-plant searches. The species likely completes a single generation per year in its northern European range. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
