Distributed across Belgium, Denmark, Norway, and Sweden.
gorilla
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, and flooded grasslands and savannas, among 4 distinct biome types within the Afrotropic biogeographic realm. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
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 viridifusca is a saprotrophic discomycete in the family Sclerotiniaceae, found in temperate Europe. It produces small, stalked cup-shaped fruiting bodies with an olive-brown to greenish-brown (viridifusca: green-brown) coloration, which distinguishes it from other members of the genus with more uniformly tan or chestnut coloration. The species fruits on fallen catkins or other plant debris in moist deciduous woodland, typically in spring or early summer following the fall of host plant material. It is classified as Least Concern, indicating stable populations within its European range. Ciboria viridifusca contributes to saprotrophic communities in woodland ecosystems, decomposing fine organic litter and participating in the cycling of carbon and nutrients. Like other Ciboria species, it is a specialist saprotroph closely tied to the availability of suitable host plant substrates. Identification requires microscopic examination, and this species may be confused with related taxa without careful analysis of spore dimensions and color. The genus Ciboria is part of the broader Sclerotiniaceae family, which is well-studied owing to its inclusion of economically important plant pathogens, though the Ciboria species themselves are benign decomposers. Records of this fungus are scattered across central Europe, and accurate distribution mapping requires systematic mycological surveys. Conservation of mature deciduous woodland benefits discomycete diversity broadly.
gorilla
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.
