Habitat & Geographic Range
シナモンコビトドリモドキ
Typically found in various aerial, terrestrial, and aquatic environments.
Distributed across Ecuador and Norway.
コウテイペンギン
Found across multiple habitat types including temperate broadleaf and mixed forests, temperate coniferous forests, and boreal forests and taiga, among 4 distinct biome types within the Palearctic biogeographic realm. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Found in Norway. Listed as Near Threatened, this species requires ongoing monitoring to prevent population decline.
シナモンコビトドリモドキ
The cinnamon-breasted tody-tyrant (Hemitriccus cinnamomeipectus) is a tiny insectivorous bird in the family Tyrannidae, endemic to a small area of highland forest in Ecuador and possibly adjacent Peru. It inhabits the undergrowth and bamboo thickets of humid montane forest on the eastern Andean slopes at elevations between approximately 1,500 and 2,200 meters. The species is named for the rich cinnamon-rufous coloration of its breast, which contrasts with its gray head and olive-green upperparts. Like other tody-tyrants, it is a compact, short-billed flycatcher that forages in dense, low vegetation for small insects and spiders. The cinnamon-breasted tody-tyrant is classified as Least Concern by the IUCN. However, given its very limited geographic range on the eastern Andean slopes of Ecuador, it is considered a species of conservation interest due to vulnerability to cloud forest habitat loss in this region. Ecuador's eastern Andes contain some of the world's highest concentrations of endemic bird species and face ongoing deforestation pressure from agricultural expansion and road-building. Hemitriccus tody-tyrants are among the most difficult flycatchers to identify in the field due to their small size, secretive habits, and similar appearances across the group. Vocalizations are often the primary means of detection and identification.
コウテイペンギン
世界最大のペンギンであるコウテイペンギン(Aptenodytes forsteri)は体高最大1.2m、体重45kgで、地球上で最も過酷な環境の一つである南極大陸に生息しています。零下60°C以下の真冬の暗闇の中で繁殖し、雌が海上にいる間、雄が65日間足の上で育雛嚢の下に一つの卵を温め続けます。数千羽からなる群れで個体が暖かい中心部を循環するいわゆるハドリング行動は、協調的な生存戦略の傑作です。
