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。

Uromyces junxiはイグサ(Juncus属)に寄生するさび病菌で、湿地や水辺の環境における宿主植物の茎や葉にオレンジ褐色の膿疱状の病変を引き起こします。この絶対寄生菌は生活環を完成させるために生きた宿主組織に完全に依存します。ヨーロッパの温帯域およびその周辺、適切なJuncus宿主が湿潤環境に存在する場所に広く分布します。
