Habitat & Geographic Range
Chrysoprase Mallee
Typically found in diverse terrestrial habitats from tropical forests to temperate regions.
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.
Chrysoprase Mallee
The Chrysoprase Mallee (Eucalyptus repullulans) is a small, multi-stemmed mallee eucalyptus endemic to the southwestern corner of Western Australia. It grows in the mallee form characteristic of many Eucalyptus species in nutrient-poor, drought-prone environments: multiple lignotuberous stems arise from a swollen root crown (lignotuber), allowing rapid resprouting following wildfire or mechanical damage. E. repullulans typically inhabits sandy soils on heathlands and sandplains, often in association with kwongan vegetation dominated by Proteaceae and Myrtaceae. The species is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN, suggesting stable populations not currently under acute threat. Like many Western Australian mallees, it produces small to medium-sized white or cream flowers that provide nectar and pollen resources for native bees, honeyeaters, and other pollinators. The lignotuber enables long-term survival and regeneration in fire-prone landscapes typical of the Australian Mediterranean climate zone. Mallee eucalypts are ecologically important as structural vegetation components in landscapes where taller trees cannot establish. Conservation of Eucalyptus repullulans is supported through the broader protection of Southwest Australian Floristic Region habitats, one of the world's biodiversity hotspots.
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。
