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 lanceolata is a unicellular haptophyte microalga within the genus Chrysochromulina, family Chrysochromulinaceae, class Prymnesiophyceae. The epithet lanceolata — lance-shaped — describes the form of a scale or haptonema component that characterizes this species, a common naming convention in a genus where species are principally separated by electron microscopy of surface structures. C. lanceolata has been recorded from Norwegian coastal marine environments and additionally from Brazilian waters, suggesting an Atlantic distribution spanning both temperate and tropical zones. Such broad distributions are not uncommon in marine nanoplankton, which can be dispersed across oceanic distances by currents and physical mixing, though molecular evidence sometimes reveals cryptic species differences between geographically distant populations. The species inhabits the photic zone of coastal to open-ocean marine systems, where it functions as a primary producer contributing to nanoplankton biomass. Like other haptophytes, C. lanceolata likely possesses the ability for mixotrophic nutrition, combining photosynthesis with phagocytic uptake of bacteria. The genus Chrysochromulina is ecologically significant: collectively its species contribute substantially to dissolved organic carbon production, dimethylsulfoniopropionate synthesis — a precursor to the climatically active gas dimethylsulfide — and carbon export in the biological pump. C. lanceolata has not been evaluated under IUCN criteria and is listed as Not Evaluated. The species represents one of many Chrysochromulina taxa requiring further molecular characterization to establish global biogeographic patterns.
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。
