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 Straw Grasshopper

Habitat

Typically found in virtually all terrestrial and freshwater habitats.

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 Straw Grasshopper

<em>Euchorthippus declivus</em>, the common straw grasshopper, is an orthopteran insect in the family Acrididae, order Orthoptera. It is found primarily in dry grasslands, steppe habitats, and open scrubland across much of central and southern Europe and western Asia. The species is a typical grassland acridid, feeding on grasses and herbaceous plants, and is active during warmer months of the year. Males are notably smaller than females, and the species produces stridulatory sounds used in mate attraction, a characteristic of the family. <em>Euchorthippus declivus</em> plays an important role in grassland food webs as both herbivore and prey for birds, reptiles, and invertebrate predators. Geographic range data beyond its general European distribution remain incompletely documented at the global scale. Biological traits including average lifespan, body measurements under field conditions, and detailed dietary specificity remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. The species is currently assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN, indicating no immediate conservation threats, though grassland habitat loss across Europe may pose long-term pressures on local populations.
