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 Rootstock Spiderhead

Habitat

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

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 Rootstock Spiderhead

<em>Serruria acrocarpa</em>, the common rootstock spiderhead, is a flowering shrub in the family Proteaceae, order Proteales. It is assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. The genus Serruria is endemic to the Cape Floristic Region of South Africa, one of the world's six major floral kingdoms and a globally recognized biodiversity hotspot. Common rootstock spiderhead typically grows in fynbos shrubland — the fire-adapted, species-rich shrubland vegetation characteristic of the southwestern and southern Cape — on well-drained, nutrient-poor sandstone-derived soils. Like other Proteaceae, <em>Serruria acrocarpa</em> is adapted to nutrient-poor soils through specialized cluster roots that enhance phosphorus uptake. The genus Serruria is known for its finely divided, needle-like leaves and clustered flower heads that attract sunbirds and insects as pollinators. Many Proteaceae in the Cape Floristic Region are serotinous, holding seeds in woody cones that open following fire events. Biological traits such as lifespan, body measurements, and detailed reproductive ecology remain poorly documented for this taxon in published quantitative studies. The species faces ongoing pressure from habitat loss, invasive alien plants, and altered fire regimes in the Cape Floristic Region.
