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 subarcticum is a colonial planktonic cyanobacterium in the family Merismopediaceae, as its epithet suggests, with distribution records concentrated in subarctic and boreal freshwater environments of Scandinavia, specifically Norway and Sweden. The species forms spherical mucilaginous colonies with peripheral cell arrangement typical of the genus, and its adaptation to cold water temperatures distinguishes it ecologically from congeners that prefer warmer, more eutrophic conditions. Subarctic lakes and ponds are characterised by low temperatures, ice cover for much of the year, and typically oligotrophic to mesotrophic conditions with relatively low nutrient levels. In such settings, cyanobacteria including Coelosphaerium subarcticum contribute to primary production during the ice-free summer season when available light and temperatures support photosynthesis. Gas vesicles in the cells enable buoyancy regulation, allowing colonies to rise toward surface light layers during calm conditions. Arctic and subarctic freshwater ecosystems are among the environments most sensitive to climate-driven changes, with warming temperatures extending the growing season, altering ice regimes, and potentially enabling southerly species to expand northward while cold-adapted taxa face range contraction. No formal IUCN conservation evaluation has been conducted for this species, as is typical for planktonic microorganisms at this taxonomic level.
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。
