Habitat

Typically found in diverse terrestrial habitats from tropical forests to temperate regions.

Range

Found across Europe (7 countries) and North America (Canada, United States). Listed as Near Threatened, this species requires ongoing monitoring to prevent population decline.

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 Queen-Of-The-Meadow

The Common Queen of the Meadow, <em>Filipendula vulgaris</em>, is a perennial herbaceous plant in the family Rosaceae, native to Europe and introduced to North America. It typically grows in dry to moderately moist calcareous grasslands, chalk downs, road verges, and open scrublands on well-drained, alkaline or neutral soils in full sun or partial shade. The species produces a basal rosette of pinnate leaves with numerous small, deeply toothed leaflets interspersed with tiny intermediate leaflets, and erect flowering stems typically reaching 30 to 60 centimeters bearing dense, frothy clusters of creamy-white to pale pink flowers in early summer. Unlike its relative Meadowsweet (<em>Filipendula ulmaria</em>), it is a plant of drier habitats. <em>Filipendula vulgaris</em> has historically been used in traditional herbal medicine, and its tuberous roots contain compounds related to aspirin. It is an important nectar source for pollinators including bees and hoverflies. The species is assessed as Near Threatened on the IUCN Red List, reflecting habitat loss through agricultural improvement and grassland degradation across parts of its range. Biological traits such as average lifespan, body size, and specific dietary preferences remain poorly documented for this species.
