フチオハチドリ

温かみのあるバフ黄色の尾基部と冠状の輝く頭部をもつ大型の頑健なハチドリで、コロンビアとエクアドルの北アンデスの雲霧林や林縁に、標高1,200〜2,800mで生息します。比較的攻撃的で花蜜に富む縄張りを守り、大型の開花木で採食します。低地種に比べて大きな体は、高標高での低温耐性の採食に対する適応を反映しています。軽度懸念に分類されています。

common sea hare

<em>Aplysia punctata</em>, the common sea hare, is a large opisthobranch sea slug in the family Aplysiidae, order Aplysiida, found in the northeastern Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea, with confirmed records from Denmark, Norway, Portugal, and Sweden. This species typically inhabits shallow subtidal and intertidal zones with abundant macroalgae, feeding primarily on red and green algae — a diet that influences the color of the defensive purple ink it secretes when threatened. <em>Aplysia punctata</em> is a simultaneous hermaphrodite, capable of acting as both male and female during mating, and often forms mating chains involving multiple individuals. It can reach considerable size among European opisthobranch species, though body dimensions vary considerably with age and feeding conditions. The species is classified as Least Concern by the IUCN, reflecting stable populations across its coastal range. Biological traits for this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature, including precise average data on lifespan, body length, weight, and detailed seasonal dietary patterns, though its general herbivorous feeding on macroalgae is well established.
