Distributed across Cameroon, Congo (Republic), Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon. Currently classified as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.

Ciboria betulicola is a small cup fungus in the family Sclerotiniaceae, found in temperate Europe. Like its close relative Ciboria betulae, this species is associated with birch (Betula) and fruits on fallen catkins or other birch reproductive material in moist woodland and riparian habitats. Its fruiting bodies are stalked discomycetes with the characteristic pale to brownish cup shape of the genus, typically emerging in late spring or early summer following catkin fall. The species has not been formally assessed by the IUCN. Ciboria betulicola is distinguished from the closely related Ciboria betulae and other congeners by a combination of spore morphology, ascocarp dimensions, and substrate details, with microscopic examination required for confident identification. Saprotrophic cup fungi of this type play important ecological roles in decomposing the fine organic material of woodland floors and riparian zones, facilitating nutrient return to the soil. Records of Ciboria betulicola are relatively sparse in the mycological literature, reflecting both its small size, brief fruiting season, and the general under-recording of discomycetes compared to larger macrofungi. Its distribution is thought to track birch woodland distribution across northern and central Europe, though documentation is incomplete. Molecular phylogenetic studies have helped clarify relationships within Ciboria and Sclerotiniaceae more broadly.

세계에서 가장 큰 영장류인 서부고릴라는 체중이 최대 180kg에 달하며 적도 아프리카의 열대 및 아열대 삼림에 서식한다. 주로 초식성이며, 무리를 보호하고 사회적 갈등을 중재하는 실버백 수컷이 이끄는 가족 집단을 이루어 생활한다. 삼림 벌채, 식육용 밀렵, 에볼라 바이러스 발병의 위협으로 인해 심각한 위기(CR) 종으로 지정되었다.
