jaguar
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, and tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, among 6 distinct biome types spanning the Neotropic and Oceanian realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Distributed across Colombia, Ecuador, and Venezuela. Listed as Near Threatened, this species requires ongoing monitoring to prevent population decline.
Chrysochromulina spinifera is a marine haptophyte alga in the family Prymnesiaceae, distinguished by spine-bearing scales on the cell surface, from which the epithet spinifera (Latin: spine-bearing) derives. These spines, visible under electron microscopy, project outward from the organic scale body, giving cells a bristled appearance. Chrysochromulina species produce these complex scale structures internally and export them through the endomembrane system. Cells are biflagellate and equipped with a haptonema used in prey capture and attachment. C. spinifera is found in coastal marine waters of temperate and cold seas in the Northern Hemisphere, consistent with the broader biogeographic range of the genus. Haptophytes of the Chrysochromulina type play significant roles in marine ecosystems as primary producers, bacterivores, and sources of biochemically important compounds including polyunsaturated fatty acids and DMSP. Some Chrysochromulina species produce haemolytic compounds during bloom events that are toxic to fish and invertebrates. The conservation status of C. spinifera has not been evaluated by the IUCN, and the species is listed as Not Evaluated. Molecular phylogenetics is gradually resolving the taxonomy of the numerous spine-bearing Chrysochromulina morphospecies.
jaguar
아메리카 대륙에서 가장 큰 고양잇과 동물로, 체중이 최대 100kg에 달하며 단단하고 근육질의 체형과 특유의 로제트 무늬 털가죽을 지닌다. 멕시코에서 남아메리카까지 분포하며, 아마존과 판타날이 주요 서식지다. 뛰어난 수영 실력을 갖춘 최상위 포식자로, 먹이 개체수 조절에 핵심적 역할을 한다. 산림 벌채로 인해 서식 범위가 줄어들어 준위협종으로 분류된다.
