Cloth of gold

The cloth of gold crocus (Crocus angustifolius) is a small bulbous perennial in the family Iridaceae native to the Crimean Peninsula, the Caucasus, and nearby regions of southeastern Europe and southwestern Asia. Named for its brilliant golden-yellow flowers with distinctive bronze-purple exterior striping on the outer tepals, it is among the most ornamentally striking of the spring-flowering crocuses. The corms produce narrow, rush-like leaves with a white central stripe and solitary flowers on short stems at ground level in late winter to early spring, emerging before or with the leaves. In its native habitat, C. angustifolius grows on rocky slopes, dry grasslands, and open scrublands in the Crimean mountains and Caucasian foothills, where it is adapted to cold winters and warm, dry summers. The species has been cultivated in European gardens since at least the 16th century and is widely grown as an ornamental bulb. Natural populations may face pressure from overcollection for the horticultural trade and from habitat disturbance in parts of its native range in the Black Sea region.

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.
