cluster fig

Ficus congesta, a species within the enormously diverse fig genus of the family Moraceae, is a tropical tree producing characteristic clustered figs that ripen to attract frugivorous birds, bats, and mammals. The genus Ficus comprises over 800 species distributed pantropically, and F. congesta occupies forest habitats across Southeast Asia and Melanesia, where it grows in primary and secondary lowland tropical forests at varying elevations. Like other members of the genus, Ficus congesta maintains an obligate pollination mutualism with a specific fig wasp species in the family Agaonidae; each fig species and its wasp partner have co-evolved in tight specificity over millions of years. The tree produces figs in dense clusters on the trunk and branches, providing an abundant and reliable food source for wildlife that supplement more seasonal fruiting trees. Ficus congesta is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN given the breadth of its range across Melanesia and parts of island Southeast Asia. Figs serve critical ecological roles as keystone resources in tropical forests, sustaining frugivore populations during periods when other fruits are scarce. The species contributes to forest regeneration as frugivores disperse its seeds widely across the landscape.

ハイバラエメラルドハチドリ

アカオハチドリ(Amazilia tzacatl)は中央アメリカと南アメリカ北西部で最もよく見られるハチドリの一つで、緑色の上面と診断的な明るい赤褐色の尾が特徴的な中型種である。メキシコからエクアドル、トリニダードにかけて、海抜0~2,100mの林縁、庭園、農園、二次林など多様な環境に生息する。給餌台や花の咲く植物の縄張りを積極的に守り、分布域全体の庭でしばしば目撃される。軽度懸念に指定されている。
