Habitat & Geographic Range

ハクトウワシ

Habitat

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.

Range

Widely distributed across Europe (8 countries), North America (United States), and South America (Ecuador).

Common Fumitory

Habitat

Inhabits temperate broadleaf and mixed forests within the Palearctic biogeographic realm.

Range

Widely distributed across Africa (South Africa), Asia (4 countries), Europe (18 countries), North America (Canada, Mexico, United States), and South America (4 countries).

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。

Common Fumitory

<em>Fumaria officinalis</em>, commonly known as common fumitory, is an annual herbaceous plant in the family Papaveraceae. It has a very wide global distribution spanning Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, and South America, reflecting its success as a weedy colonizer of disturbed habitats. The species typically grows in cultivated fields, roadsides, gardens, and waste ground, tolerating a broad range of soil types and conditions. <em>Fumaria officinalis</em> produces small pinkish-purple tubular flowers and finely divided, glaucous foliage that gives the plant a delicate, smoke-like appearance — a characteristic reflected in its common name. It is assessed as Least Concern, consistent with its extensive cosmopolitan distribution and abundance in human-modified landscapes. The plant has a long history of use in traditional herbal medicine across parts of its native range. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. Despite its weedy character, <em>Fumaria officinalis</em> provides food resources for certain specialist insects and contributes to ground flora diversity in agricultural and disturbed environments.
