Habitat & Geographic Range
バスラオオヨシキリ
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, and flooded grasslands and savannas, among 5 distinct biome types within the Afrotropic biogeographic realm. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Distributed across Kenya and Norway. Currently classified as Endangered on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.
Common box
Typically found in diverse terrestrial habitats from tropical forests to temperate regions.
Widely distributed across Africa (Libya, Sao Tome and Principe), Asia (Armenia, India, Taiwan), Europe (15 countries), North America (United States), and South America (Colombia, Ecuador).
バスラオオヨシキリ
The Basra Reed Warbler (Acrocephalus griseldis) is a species in the genus Acrocephalus. It is currently classified as Endangered on the IUCN Red List. Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, and flooded grasslands and savannas, among 5 distinct biome types within the Afrotropic biogeo.
Common box
The common box (<em>Buxus sempervirens</em>) is a slow-growing evergreen shrub or small tree with one of the widest distributions of any species in its genus, occurring across Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, and South America. It typically inhabits diverse terrestrial ecosystems, from limestone hillsides and rocky slopes to woodland understories and cultivated gardens. The common box has not been formally evaluated on the IUCN Red List. Long valued in horticulture and topiary, this species is widely cultivated and naturalized far beyond its native range in southern Europe, western Asia, and northern Africa. Its dense, hard wood is among the heaviest produced by any European tree, historically used for woodworking and engraving. The species often forms dense thickets in natural settings, providing important shelter for invertebrates and small vertebrates. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
