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 Wrinkle-Leaved Goldenrod

<em>Solidago rugosa</em>, the wrinkleleaf goldenrod or common wrinkle-leaved goldenrod, is a perennial herbaceous plant in the family Asteraceae. It is native to eastern North America, distributed from Newfoundland and Quebec south through the eastern United States to Florida and Texas, where it grows in a variety of moist to wet habitats including streambanks, floodplain forests, wet meadows, bogs, and disturbed areas. The species is easily recognized by its distinctive wrinkled or rugose leaf surface, which gives the plant its common and scientific names. Stems typically reach 60–200 cm in height and bear arching, one-sided clusters of small yellow flower heads that bloom from August through October, providing late-season nectar for pollinators. Biological traits such as precise average lifespan and detailed morphological measurements remain poorly documented at the population level. <em>Solidago rugosa</em> is a vigorous colonizer of disturbed and semi-natural habitats and is sometimes considered aggressive in managed landscapes. It plays an important role in supporting native bees, beetles, and butterflies. The species has not been formally evaluated for conservation status by the IUCN and is considered broadly common across its native range.
