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.
Chrysochromulina fragilis is a unicellular haptophyte microalga in the genus Chrysochromulina, family Chrysochromulinaceae, class Prymnesiophyceae. The specific epithet fragilis — meaning fragile — may reference the delicate nature of the cell's scale ornamentation or the structural fragility of the haptonema, which can be easily damaged during preparation of electron microscopy specimens. Chrysochromulina species are nanoplankton organisms characterized by golden-brown chloroplasts, two flagella of approximately equal length, and a coiling haptonema that is a defining feature of the haptophyte lineage. C. fragilis is known from Norwegian and Swedish coastal marine environments, reflecting the thorough phycological sampling of Scandinavian waters that produced a substantial proportion of the currently recognized Chrysochromulina species. In these cold temperate to subarctic coastal systems, haptophytes including C. fragilis contribute to the spring and summer phytoplankton biomass. The species engages in photosynthesis utilizing the characteristic haptophyte pigment suite, and may supplement carbon acquisition through bacterivory or ingestion of dissolved organic matter. Chrysochromulina species as a group produce a variety of secondary metabolites, and some species form large surface blooms in stratified coastal waters. C. fragilis itself has not been associated with harmful bloom events in the published literature. It carries a conservation status of Not Evaluated under IUCN criteria. Continued ultrastructural, biochemical, and molecular studies of Norwegian Chrysochromulina species continue to illuminate the extraordinary diversity of this genus.
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。
