Clustered Fanpetals

Sida glomerata, the clustered fanpetals, is a perennial herb or subshrub in the family Malvaceae native to tropical and subtropical Americas, with distribution also recorded in the Pacific Islands. The genus Sida is a pantropical group of about 150–200 species of mallows, many of which are weedy pioneers of disturbed habitats. S. glomerata produces small yellow, five-petaled flowers typical of the mallow family, with flowers clustered in the leaf axils. The leaves are alternate, simple, and often covered in stellate hairs. Like other Sida species, it grows in disturbed open habitats including roadsides, waste ground, pastures, and forest margins. Members of the genus are used medicinally in traditional systems across tropical regions, with fiber extracted from stems in some species. S. glomerata is classified as Least Concern by the IUCN, being a common and adaptable species across its tropical range. The pantropical distribution of many Sida species has been facilitated by their association with human-disturbed habitats and their ability to produce abundant, persistent seeds.

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.
