Epaulard

イルカ科で最大の種であるシャチ(Orcinus orca)は体長最大9メートル、体重6トンに達し、北極から南極まですべての海洋に生息しています。独特の方言、狩猟戦略、集団間で異なる文化的伝統を持つ母系ポッドで生活する頂点捕食者です。一部の集団は魚類を、他の集団は海洋哺乳類を専門に捕食します。天敵はなく、シャチは生息するすべての海洋食物連鎖の頂点に位置します。

Phaeophyscia endophoenicea は Physciaceae 科の葉状地衣類で、最も懸念が少ない(LC)と評価されている。樹皮や岩石表面に小さなロゼットを形成し、適度に栄養が豊富な生息地に見られることが多い。同属の他の種と同様に、茶色の上部皮層と明るい色の下面を持つ。
