gray wolf

Habitat

Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, deserts and xeric shrublands, and tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, among 13 distinct biome types. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.

Range

Widely distributed across Africa (Seychelles), Asia (Japan), Europe (5 countries), North America (7 countries), Oceania and the Pacific (Marshall Islands, Vanuatu), and South America (5 countries). Currently classified as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.

Clustered Fanpetals

Sida glomerata, the clustered fanpetals, is a perennial herb or subshrub in the family Malvaceae native to tropical and subtropical Americas, with distribution also recorded in the Pacific Islands. The genus Sida is a pantropical group of about 150–200 species of mallows, many of which are weedy pioneers of disturbed habitats. S. glomerata produces small yellow, five-petaled flowers typical of the mallow family, with flowers clustered in the leaf axils. The leaves are alternate, simple, and often covered in stellate hairs. Like other Sida species, it grows in disturbed open habitats including roadsides, waste ground, pastures, and forest margins. Members of the genus are used medicinally in traditional systems across tropical regions, with fiber extracted from stems in some species. S. glomerata is classified as Least Concern by the IUCN, being a common and adaptable species across its tropical range. The pantropical distribution of many Sida species has been facilitated by their association with human-disturbed habitats and their ability to produce abundant, persistent seeds.
