climbing-oleander

Climbing Oleander, Strophanthus gratus, is a woody liana or climbing shrub in the family Apocynaceae native to tropical West and Central Africa, occurring in rainforest margins, gallery forest, and secondary forest from Senegal to Uganda. The species belongs to a genus celebrated for the cardiac glycosides and arrow poisons produced in the seeds; Strophanthus species were the source of the drug ouabain (g-strophanthin), historically used in cardiac medicine and by African hunters as an arrow poison applied to hunting darts. Climbing Oleander produces large, funnel-shaped flowers with white to pale pink twisted petals and a fringe of elongated lobes at the corolla mouth, borne in terminal cymes that are highly ornamental. The name 'climbing oleander' refers to the superficial resemblance of the flowers to the related Mediterranean oleander (Nerium oleander). The species climbs by twining its stems around supporting vegetation and is occasionally cultivated as an ornamental in tropical gardens. The seeds contain strophanthin and other potent glycosides that affect the cardiac system; all parts of the plant are toxic if ingested. The species is not currently assessed as threatened within its native tropical African range.

Fly Agaric

광대버섯(Amanita muscaria)은 지구상에서 가장 상징적이고 잘 알려진 균류로, 북반구 한대림 전역에 걸쳐 흰 반점이 박힌 선명한 붉은 갓을 드러낸다. 동화 같은 외모와 달리 무스시몰과 이보텐산 등 강력한 향정신성 화합물을 함유하며 중등도 독성이 있다. 자작나무, 소나무, 가문비나무와 필수 외균근 공생 관계를 형성하여 무기 영양분을 탄소와 교환하며 한대림 영양 순환에 핵심 역할을 담당한다.
