コウテイペンギン

世界最大のペンギンであるコウテイペンギン(Aptenodytes forsteri)は体高最大1.2m、体重45kgで、地球上で最も過酷な環境の一つである南極大陸に生息しています。零下60°C以下の真冬の暗闇の中で繁殖し、雌が海上にいる間、雄が65日間足の上で育雛嚢の下に一つの卵を温め続けます。数千羽からなる群れで個体が暖かい中心部を循環するいわゆるハドリング行動は、協調的な生存戦略の傑作です。

Eunotia rhomboideaはEunotia属特有の微妙に湾曲した弓形背側縁とひし形輪郭を持つ淡水珪藻です。山岳湿地、泥炭池、軟水渓流を含む酸性の貧栄養から腐植栄養の淡水環境に生息します。この光合成珪藻は酸性の栄養貧しい淡水環境を示します。
