jaguar

アメリカ大陸最大のネコ科動物で、体重は最大100kgに達し、がっしりとした筋肉質の体型と特有のロゼット模様の毛皮を持つ。メキシコから南アメリカにかけて分布し、アマゾンやパンタナルが主要生息地となる。優れた水泳能力を持つ頂点捕食者であり、獲物個体数の調節に重要な役割を担う。森林破壊により生息域が縮小し、準絶滅危惧に分類されている。

Pseudoxanthomonas kaohsiungensisは台湾の高雄で初めて記載されたグラム陰性の黄色色素を持つ細菌である。亜熱帯土壌環境に生息し、この属に特徴的なカロテノイド色素を産生する。この好気性細菌は温暖な陸上土壌で有機化合物を分解する。
