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。

Common corncockle

<em>Agrostemma githago</em>, commonly known as common corncockle, is an annual flowering plant in the family Caryophyllaceae. Once a widespread weed of cereal crops across Europe, Asia, and beyond, this species is now Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List due to the dramatic decline caused by modern agricultural practices, particularly improved grain cleaning and herbicide use. Corncockle is a tall, slender plant covered in silky white hairs, bearing large, solitary pink to purple flowers with distinctive dark veining. Its seeds contain toxic saponin compounds called githagins, which historically contaminated grain supplies. The species now survives primarily in wildflower conservation areas, seed banks, and traditional farmland conservation schemes. It typically grows in open, disturbed arable soils with full sun exposure. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
