jaguar
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, and tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, among 6 distinct biome types spanning the Neotropic and Oceanian realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Distributed across Colombia, Ecuador, and Venezuela. Listed as Near Threatened, this species requires ongoing monitoring to prevent population decline.
Chromosera xanthochroa is a waxcap mushroom in the family Hygrophoraceae, associated with old, unimproved grasslands in Europe. Like other members of the genus Chromosera and the broader waxcap community, it is considered an indicator of ecologically ancient grassland that has escaped agricultural intensification. The specific epithet xanthochroa refers to yellow or golden coloration, which is a feature of this species' fruiting bodies. Waxcap species are mycorrhizal or saprotrophic fungi that develop slowly over years to decades in stable grassland soils undisturbed by plowing, reseeding, or fertilizer application. The presence of rich waxcap communities — including multiple Chromosera, Cuphophyllus, Hygrocybe, and Camarophyllopsis species — is internationally recognized as a signal of extraordinary grassland biodiversity value. Countries such as Wales, Ireland, Norway, Sweden, and Estonia hold globally significant concentrations of waxcap grasslands. Chromosera xanthochroa faces pressures from habitat loss driven by agricultural intensification, development, and succession of grassland to scrub and woodland following cessation of traditional grazing. Conservation of waxcap grassland sites requires continuation of low-intensity pastoral management.
jaguar
アメリカ大陸最大のネコ科動物で、体重は最大100kgに達し、がっしりとした筋肉質の体型と特有のロゼット模様の毛皮を持つ。メキシコから南アメリカにかけて分布し、アマゾンやパンタナルが主要生息地となる。優れた水泳能力を持つ頂点捕食者であり、獲物個体数の調節に重要な役割を担う。森林破壊により生息域が縮小し、準絶滅危惧に分類されている。
