clouded-bordered brindle
The clouded bordered brindle (Apamea crenata) is a noctuid moth in the family Noctuidae found across temperate Europe and across northern Asia to Japan. The adult wingspan measures approximately 38–45 mm, with intricately patterned grey-brown and buff forewings bearing subtle cross-lines, a scalloped (crenate) outer margin giving the species its name, and distinctive reniform and orbicular markings characteristic of the Apamea genus. Adults fly in one generation from May to July, visiting flowers for nectar at night. The larvae feed internally within the stems and roots of grasses, particularly Brachypodium and other coarse grass species in woodland rides, woodland margins, and rough grassland habitats. Overwintering occurs as a larva within plant stems. Like many grass-feeding noctuids, the clouded bordered brindle requires structural diversity in its grassland and woodland edge habitats, with areas of tall, tussocky grasses providing both larval foodplants and adult shelter. Population trends in parts of its European range reflect changes in land management affecting coarse grassland and woodland ride quality.
ムジボウシインコ
アマゾンオウムの中で最大級の種の一つであるコナフキリインコは、青灰色の頭部と羽毛に独特の粉をまぶしたような光沢を持つ繊細な粉緑色の羽毛が特徴で、この特徴から名前がついた。メキシコ南部から中央アメリカを経てボリビアおよびブラジルまでの南米大部分の低地熱帯林に生息する。つがいや小群れで移動する。世界的には軽度懸念種だが、生息地の消失やペット取引の影響を局地的に受けている。
