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 pyramidosa is a unicellular marine haptophyte microalga in the genus Chrysochromulina, family Chrysochromulinaceae, class Prymnesiophyceae. The species epithet pyramidosa, meaning pyramid-shaped, refers to a pyramidal morphological feature — most likely a scale element or a distinctive cell shape — visible under electron microscopy. Within Chrysochromulina, the three-dimensional geometry of scales is a primary taxonomic character, and pyramid-shaped scales represent one of several distinctive scale forms distributed across the genus. C. pyramidosa has been documented from Norwegian and Swedish coastal marine environments, part of the extensive Scandinavian haptophyte biodiversity documented through systematic surveys of northern Atlantic coastal waters. These environments are characterized by cold, highly productive waters influenced by the North Atlantic Current and seasonal upwelling of nutrient-rich deep water. Chrysochromulina species including C. pyramidosa are common nanoplankton constituents in these systems, particularly during stratified summer conditions when nutrient depletion in surface waters selects for smaller, more efficient phytoplankton cells. Like other genus members, the species is presumed to employ both photosynthesis and potentially phagotrophic nutrition to sustain itself in variable nutritional environments. C. pyramidosa carries a conservation status of Not Evaluated under IUCN criteria. It represents one of the geometrically diverse scale forms documented within Chrysochromulina, contributing to the broader picture of haptophyte morphological evolution and diversity in temperate Atlantic marine systems.
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。
