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.
Chroococcus westii is a species of cyanobacteria in the family Chroococcaceae, likely named in honor of a naturalist or phycologist named West, following the common nineteenth and early twentieth century tradition of naming newly described microorganisms after prominent researchers in the field. The species belongs to a genus of simple, spherical cyanobacteria that occur in pairs or small groups within gelatinous sheaths in freshwater and aquatic environments. Chroococcus westii has been documented from freshwater habitats, contributing to the cyanobacterial diversity of lakes, pools, and associated periphyton communities. Cyanobacteria of the Chroococcaceae are among the foundational components of freshwater microbial ecosystems, contributing to primary production, biofilm formation, and in some lineages, biological nitrogen fixation. The taxonomy of the genus Chroococcus has undergone revision through the application of modern molecular phylogenetic methods, which have revealed that morphologically similar coccoid cyanobacteria can be phylogenetically distant, suggesting the need for further taxonomic work. Chroococcus westii is a relatively obscure species documented primarily in classical phycological literature. It has not received formal IUCN assessment.
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。
