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.
Coelosphaerium kuetzingianum is a colonial planktonic cyanobacterium in the family Merismopediaceae, named in honour of the nineteenth-century German phycologist Friedrich Traugott Kützing, who made foundational contributions to the study of algae and cyanobacteria. The species forms spherical to globular mucilaginous colonies with cells arranged near the periphery of a clear gelatinous matrix—the characteristic architecture of the genus. Individual cells are small, typically 2–5 micrometres in diameter, and possess gas vesicles that confer buoyancy regulation, enabling the organism to position itself advantageously in stratified water columns. Coelosphaerium kuetzingianum has been recorded from freshwater lakes, reservoirs, and ponds across temperate northern Europe, including Denmark, Norway, and Sweden, as well as from Taiwan, indicating a broad latitudinal tolerance. Its occurrence in both boreal and subtropical settings suggests morphological plasticity or the presence of distinct ecotypes within the species concept. As with other members of the genus, it participates in aquatic food webs as a primary producer and is consumed by filter-feeding zooplankton such as cladocerans and rotifers. Eutrophication resulting from agricultural nutrient loading can stimulate cyanobacterial growth in affected water bodies. No IUCN conservation assessment has been undertaken for this planktonic cyanobacterium.
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。
