Habitat & Geographic Range

Common sawfly

Habitat

Typically found in virtually all terrestrial and freshwater habitats.

Range

Found across Europe (7 countries) and North America (Canada, United States).

Tiger

Habitat

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.

Range

Distributed across Colombia and Ecuador. Currently classified as Endangered on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.

Common sawfly

<em>Hoplocampa brevis</em>, the plum sawfly or common sawfly, is a hymenopteran insect in the family Tenthredinidae. The species is distributed across Europe and has been introduced to parts of North America, with records from Canada and the United States, typically in association with commercial plum and cherry orchards. Adults are small, wasp-like insects approximately 4–5 millimeters in length, with pale yellow-brown coloration. Females lay eggs inside flower buds of <em>Prunus</em> species during blossoming, and the hatching larvae burrow into developing fruitlets, feeding on the contents before exiting to pupate in the soil. Larval feeding causes fruitlets to drop prematurely, and infestations can cause economically significant losses in plum and damson production. The species is not currently evaluated on the IUCN Red List. Adults feed on nectar and pollen, and the species typically produces one generation per year, with adults emerging in spring coinciding with the blossoming period of host trees. The larvae are creamy white with a brownish head capsule and produce a distinctive, unpleasant odor when disturbed. Biological traits such as average lifespan, body weight, and detailed non-larval dietary composition remain poorly documented in standardized ecological databases.

Tiger

地球上最大の野生ネコ科動物で、体重が300kgを超えることもあり、ロシア極東から東南アジアにかけての森林に生息する。まだら光の中で擬態効果を持つ独特のオレンジと黒の縞模様の毛皮を持つ単独待ち伏せ型捕食者である。密猟と森林破壊により野生個体数が4,000頭未満に減少した深刻な危機（CR）種である。
