Habitat & Geographic Range
Clubbed General
Typically found in virtually all terrestrial and freshwater habitats.
Distributed across Belgium, Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. Listed as Near Threatened, this species requires ongoing monitoring to prevent population decline.
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.
Clubbed General
Stratiomys chamaeleon is a soldier fly in the family Stratiomyidae, commonly known as the clubbed general. It is a large, distinctive fly with wasp-like yellow and black banding on the abdomen, giving it an aposematic appearance. Adults are frequently observed visiting flowers for nectar and pollen in wet meadows, marshes, and fens, particularly in western and northern Europe. The species is associated with wetland habitats, where larvae develop aquatically or semi-aquatically in waterlogged soils, mud, decaying organic matter near water margins, and occasionally in dung. Larvae are elongated, flat-bodied, and breathe via a respiratory siphon at the tail end. Adults are strong fliers capable of covering considerable distances between habitat patches. Stratiomys chamaeleon is considered Near Threatened, reflecting the significant loss and degradation of wet grassland and fen habitats across Europe due to drainage for agriculture, peat extraction, and development. The species requires mosaics of open water, wet soil, and flowering plants to complete its life cycle. Conservation depends on wetland restoration and maintenance of traditional wet meadow management.
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。
