Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.

Range

Distributed across Colombia, Ecuador, and Venezuela. Listed as Near Threatened, this species requires ongoing monitoring to prevent population decline.

Chrysochromulina spinifera is a marine haptophyte alga in the family Prymnesiaceae, distinguished by spine-bearing scales on the cell surface, from which the epithet spinifera (Latin: spine-bearing) derives. These spines, visible under electron microscopy, project outward from the organic scale body, giving cells a bristled appearance. Chrysochromulina species produce these complex scale structures internally and export them through the endomembrane system. Cells are biflagellate and equipped with a haptonema used in prey capture and attachment. C. spinifera is found in coastal marine waters of temperate and cold seas in the Northern Hemisphere, consistent with the broader biogeographic range of the genus. Haptophytes of the Chrysochromulina type play significant roles in marine ecosystems as primary producers, bacterivores, and sources of biochemically important compounds including polyunsaturated fatty acids and DMSP. Some Chrysochromulina species produce haemolytic compounds during bloom events that are toxic to fish and invertebrates. The conservation status of C. spinifera has not been evaluated by the IUCN, and the species is listed as Not Evaluated. Molecular phylogenetics is gradually resolving the taxonomy of the numerous spine-bearing Chrysochromulina morphospecies.

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。
