중형 마코앵무로 멕시코 남부에서 볼리비아와 브라질에 이르는 중앙 및 남아메리카 열대 우림에 서식하며, 밤색 이마, 붉은 어깨 반점, 청색 날개 깃털을 가진 주로 녹색 깃털이 특징이다. 진정한 마코앵무 중 가장 작은 종으로, 산림 가장자리, 사바나, 2차 삼림에 서식하며 종종 농작물을 습격해 지역 농민들에게 인기가 없다. 인기 있는 사육용 새이지만, 야생 개체군은 포획과 삼림 벌채로 인한 압박을 받고 있다.
common sea hare
<em>Aplysia punctata</em>, the common sea hare, is a large opisthobranch sea slug in the family Aplysiidae, order Aplysiida, found in the northeastern Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea, with confirmed records from Denmark, Norway, Portugal, and Sweden. This species typically inhabits shallow subtidal and intertidal zones with abundant macroalgae, feeding primarily on red and green algae — a diet that influences the color of the defensive purple ink it secretes when threatened. <em>Aplysia punctata</em> is a simultaneous hermaphrodite, capable of acting as both male and female during mating, and often forms mating chains involving multiple individuals. It can reach considerable size among European opisthobranch species, though body dimensions vary considerably with age and feeding conditions. The species is classified as Least Concern by the IUCN, reflecting stable populations across its coastal range. Biological traits for this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature, including precise average data on lifespan, body length, weight, and detailed seasonal dietary patterns, though its general herbivorous feeding on macroalgae is well established.
