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。

Sclerophora pallidaは欧州各地の保全状態の良い古木林の老木の樹皮に生育する希少な淡色のカリシオイドな地衣類または地衣類寄生菌です。森林生態系における生態的連続性の信頼できる指標種とみなされています。準絶滅危惧の状況は老木と原生林生息地の継続的な喪失に関連しています。
