マミジロイカル

メキシコから中米、ボリビア・ブラジルにかけての湿潤な森林・林縁・二次林に生息する大型の美しいサルタトルで、緑色の上面に白い眉斑、黒いほお線、温かいバフ色の喉が特徴的です。林縁や庭園でよく見られ、豊かで旋律的な歌声を出します。種子・果実・新芽を採食し、混群に加わることもあります。広い新熱帯域の分布域で最もよく観察されるサルタトルのひとつです。

<em>Agrostis capillaris</em>, colonial bentgrass, is a perennial grass in the family Poaceae with an extensive native range across Europe and naturalised populations in North America, South America, and Oceania, including Australia and New Zealand. This species is highly adaptable, colonising tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, temperate grasslands, disturbed soils, roadsides, and cultivated landscapes within the Neotropical realm. It is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN. Colonial bentgrass is a fine-leaved, low-growing species often used in lawn and sports turf applications due to its tolerance for close mowing and its capacity to form dense, even swards. Its panicle inflorescences bear numerous small spikelets on delicate, hair-like branches, giving the species a feathery appearance when in flower. In its naturalised range, <em>Agrostis capillaris</em> can become invasive, competing with native grass species in acid grasslands and open heathlands. The species tolerates acidic and nutrient-poor soils, attributes that contribute to its widespread persistence in degraded landscapes. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
