giraffe

地球上で最も背の高い動物であるキリン（Giraffa camelopardalis）は体高が5.5mに達し、体重は最大1,750kgにもなる。すべての哺乳類と同じ7個の頸椎からなる長い首は、アフリカのサバンナや疎林のアカシアの木に食物を求めて進化した。永続的な絆を持たない緩やかな群れで生活する社会的動物で、超低周波音と身振りで意思疎通する。生息地の喪失と密猟により個体数が減少している危急種である。

Mikrosyphar polysiphoniae は Ectocarpales 目に属する小型の内生性褐藻で、Polysiphonia 属の紅藻に寄生します。宿主の皮層組織に侵入し、宿主葉状体の表面に小さな膿疱を形成します。軽度懸念と評価されており、北半球の温帯沿岸海洋環境で見られます。
