Black-throated Mango

검은목망고벌새(Anthracothorax nigricollis)는 멕시코 남부에서 아르헨티나까지 열대림에 서식하는 크고 화려한 벌새입니다. 뚜렷한 성적 이형성을 보이며, 수컷은 반짝이는 검은 목과 가슴에 보라·녹색 옆구리와 선명한 보라색 꼬리를 자랑하고, 암컷은 가슴 중앙에 검은 줄무늬가 있는 흰 아랫면을 지닙니다. 개화하는 나무를 공격적으로 방어하며 열대 전역에서 최소관심종으로 분류됩니다.

Common Flax

<em>Linum usitatissimum</em> is an annual flowering plant in the family Linaceae, order Malpighiales, commonly known as common flax or linseed. This species has been cultivated by humans for thousands of years and is one of the oldest domesticated crops, valued for both its fiber (used to produce linen textiles) and its seeds (source of linseed oil and dietary flaxseed). <em>Linum usitatissimum</em> has an exceptionally broad global distribution through cultivation and naturalization, with presence documented across Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, Oceania, and South America. The plant typically grows as a slender, erect annual reaching approximately 1.2 meters in height, bearing narrow leaves and distinctive pale blue to white five-petaled flowers. It favors well-drained soils in temperate to subtropical climates and is widely grown as a commercial crop. The species thrives in open, sunny habitats. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
