Enchylium bachmanianumは、湿潤な生息地の湿った岩石表面、土壌、苔の上に小さなゼリー状の葉状体を形成するゼラチン質の暗色シアノ地衣類です。葉状体内にシアノバクテリアの光合成共生体を含み、窒素固定が可能です。準絶滅危惧(NT)に指定されており、この目立たない地衣類はヨーロッパの分布域において、生息地の乾燥化、攪乱、安定した湿潤な微小生息地の喪失に敏感です。
gray wolf
最も広い分布域を持つ野生のイヌ科動物であるハイイロオオカミは、北アメリカからユーラシアにかけてのツンドラ、森林、草原などの多様な生息地に分布します。優位な繁殖ペアに率いられた家族単位の群れで生活する高度に社会的な動物です。キーストーン捕食者として獲物個体群を調整し、生態系の構造を根本的に形成することは、イエローストーンでの再導入により実証されています。かつて激しく迫害されましたが、多くの地域で個体群は回復しつつあります。
