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。

Nitzschia parvulaは、Bacillariaceae科に属する小型の淡水珪藻類で、弁縁に沿って竜骨と縫合部を持つ線形から披針形の弁が特徴である。河川、湖沼、湿地の底生および付着性群集に生息する。
