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。

Epaulard

イルカ科で最大の種であるシャチ（Orcinus orca）は体長最大9メートル、体重6トンに達し、北極から南極まですべての海洋に生息しています。独特の方言、狩猟戦略、集団間で異なる文化的伝統を持つ母系ポッドで生活する頂点捕食者です。一部の集団は魚類を、他の集団は海洋哺乳類を専門に捕食します。天敵はなく、シャチは生息するすべての海洋食物連鎖の頂点に位置します。
