Typically found in forest floors, decomposing wood, and soil ecosystems.
Distributed across Belgium, Denmark, Norway, and Sweden.
Cheetah
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, and flooded grasslands and savannas, among 9 distinct biome types spanning the Afrotropic and Palearctic realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Distributed across Botswana, Iran, Kenya, Namibia, and Tanzania. Currently classified as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.
アテリア・ノイホッフィイ(Athelia neuhoffii)は腐敗植物材料・樹皮上に薄い白色〜透明な盤状子実体を形成するコルチコイド担子菌類で、ヨーロッパの温帯林に生育する。落ち葉・小枝・落葉樹の樹皮上で腐生的に生育し、酵素分解による葉リター・樹皮の分解を通じて森林生態系の物質循環に寄与する。生物多様性の観点から重要ではあるが、詳細な生態は十分解明されていない。
Cheetah
地球上で最も速い陸上動物で、アフリカとイランの草原において短距離走で時速112kmに達する。深い胸部、長い脚、独特の黒い涙縞模様を持つ細身の体型が特徴だ。他の大型ネコ科動物とは異なり、チーターはチャープ音やパー音で鳴く。生息地の分断と大型捕食者との競争により、残存個体数は約7,000頭のみとなっており、危急種に分類されている。
