Cheetah

地球上で最も速い陸上動物で、アフリカとイランの草原において短距離走で時速112kmに達する。深い胸部、長い脚、独特の黒い涙縞模様を持つ細身の体型が特徴だ。他の大型ネコ科動物とは異なり、チーターはチャープ音やパー音で鳴く。生息地の分断と大型捕食者との競争により、残存個体数は約7,000頭のみとなっており、危急種に分類されている。

Eggerelloides mediusは堆積物粒子から多室の凝集した殻を構築する単細胞海洋生物である底生有孔虫です。浅海から中程度の水深の沿岸環境の細粒海洋堆積物に生息します。他の有孔虫と同様に腐植物や細菌を食べ、有機物の再鉱物化を含む底生生地球化学サイクルに役割を果たします。
