ムナグロマンゴーハチドリ

クロノドマンゴーハチドリ（Anthracothorax nigricollis）は、メキシコ南部からアルゼンチンにかけての熱帯林に生息する大型で目立つハチドリです。顕著な性的二形を示し、オスは輝く黒い喉と胸に紫・緑の脇腹と太い紫色の尾が特徴的で、メスは胸の中央に黒い縞が入る白い下面を持ちます。開花する木を積極的に守り、新熱帯区全域で軽度懸念に分類されています。

<em>Tragopogon porrifolius</em>, commonly known as common salsify, vegetable oyster, or purple salsify, is a biennial or perennial herbaceous plant in the family Asteraceae. Native to Mediterranean Europe and western Asia, it has been widely cultivated as a root vegetable since antiquity and has naturalized extensively across Europe, the Americas, Australia, and parts of Asia. The plant typically grows on roadsides, waste ground, dry grasslands, and disturbed soils in sunny locations. In its first year it produces a rosette of grass-like, grey-green leaves; in the second year it produces tall, branched stems bearing showy purple flower heads that resemble large dandelions, typically 5–7 centimeters in diameter. The edible taproot has a pale, somewhat oyster-like flavor when cooked, and the young shoots and flower buds are also edible. Common salsify is not currently evaluated on the IUCN Red List. Pollination is primarily by bees and other insects visiting the flowers, which open only in morning sunlight. Seeds are dispersed by wind via a feathery pappus. The species favors well-drained, moderately fertile soils and can be found in both rural and urban habitats. Biological traits such as average lifespan, body measurements, and detailed ecological diet data remain poorly documented in standardized ecological databases.
