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。

Melanoleuca cognata はバフ色から黄褐色の傘、密に並んだ淡色のひだ、やや繊維状の柄を持つ中型の褐色キノコである。ヨーロッパと北米全域の温帯落葉樹林と混交林の腐植質に富む土壌上に生育する。この腐生菌は林内土壌の落葉や埋没した木質材料を分解する。
