Biscogniauxia repandaは、枯死した広葉樹の樹皮に子嚢殻を埋め込んだ扁平で地衣状の子座を形成するビン酵母目の菌類です。コナラ、クリなどの広葉樹の枯れ枝や幹に生育し、温帯および地中海の森林に生息します。この腐生子嚢菌は枯死広葉樹を分解し、ストレスを受けたり損傷を受けた樹木に定着します。

コウテイペンギン

世界最大のペンギンであるコウテイペンギン（Aptenodytes forsteri）は体高最大1.2m、体重45kgで、地球上で最も過酷な環境の一つである南極大陸に生息しています。零下60°C以下の真冬の暗闇の中で繁殖し、雌が海上にいる間、雄が65日間足の上で育雛嚢の下に一つの卵を温め続けます。数千羽からなる群れで個体が暖かい中心部を循環するいわゆるハドリング行動は、協調的な生存戦略の傑作です。
