Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Found in China. Currently classified as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.
バチジア・アブシステンス(Bacidia absistens)は湿潤な温帯林の樹皮や岩面に着生する薄い灰緑色の痂状地衣類で、小型の暗色子嚢盤を形成する。森林の長い生態的継続性の指標種とされており、大気汚染・生育地の攪乱への感受性が高い。IUCNレッドリストでは準絶滅危惧(NT)に分類されており、古い落葉樹林の保護・管理が本種の保全において最重要課題となっている。
Bamboo bear
ジャイアントパンダ(Ailuropoda melanoleuca)は中国中部の山岳竹林に生息し、体重最大125キログラムになるクマ科の動物で、食肉目に分類されながら食事の99%を竹が占める特異な食性を持つ。偽の親指(橈側種子骨)を使って竹の茎を把握し、1日14時間もの採食時間を費やす。2016年にIUCNレッドリストで絶滅危惧から危急(VU)へ改善されており、保護繁殖プログラムと自然保護区の設置が個体数回復に貢献している。
