シロエリインカハチドリ

コロンビアからボリビアにかけてのアンデス山岳林に生息する中〜大型ハチドリであるエリマキインカハチドリは、幅広の白い胸帯と飛翔時によく見える白い尾斑を持つ、目を引く黒白の羽衣を持ちます。海抜1,700〜3,200メートルの森林と森林縁に生息し、様々な花植物で採食し、アンデスの大型花低木や樹木の重要な花粉媒介者です。対照的な白い尾斑はホバリング飛翔中に目立って点滅し、種の識別を助けます。

Araucaria cunninghamii, the colonial pine or hoop pine, is a large coniferous tree in the ancient family Araucariaceae, native to Australia and also cultivated or naturalised in India, Libya, and South Africa. This species inhabits temperate and boreal forests at higher elevations, where it often forms a prominent emergent layer in subtropical and tropical rainforest communities in Queensland and New Guinea. Hoop pine is one of Australia's most commercially important softwood timber species, valued for its straight grain, durability, and workability. Trees can grow to considerable heights, with tall trunks characterised by horizontally spreading branch whorls that give the species a distinctive silhouette. Araucaria cunninghamii is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN. The genus Araucaria has ancient origins, with fossil records extending to the Jurassic period, making it a living relic of Gondwanan flora. Seeds of hoop pine are consumed by birds and other fauna in its native range, contributing to limited seed dispersal. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
