gorilla

世界最大の霊長類であるニシゴリラは体重が最大180kgに達し、赤道アフリカの熱帯・亜熱帯の森林に生息する。主に草食性で、群れを守り社会的な対立を仲裁するシルバーバック雄が率いる家族集団を形成する。森林破壊、食肉目的の密猟、エボラウイルス感染症の流行により脅威にさらされており、近絶滅種（CR）に指定されている。

Peniophorella echinocystis は絶滅危惧IA類（CR）と評価された皮質性菌類で、極めて稀少で分布域が非常に限定されている。成熟した老齢林や古代林の枯れ木に薄い伏生の皮膜を形成する。この絶滅寸前の状況は、立ち枯れや倒木のある老齢林の緊急な保全の必要性を強調している。
