jaguar
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, and tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, among 6 distinct biome types spanning the Neotropic and Oceanian realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Distributed across Colombia, Ecuador, and Venezuela. Listed as Near Threatened, this species requires ongoing monitoring to prevent population decline.
Cocconeis pinnata is a marine and brackish-water diatom in the family Cocconeidaceae, distinguished within the genus by the pinnate (feather-like) arrangement of its striae and the specific valve morphology of its silica frustule. As an adnate epiphyte, C. pinnata attaches to a wide variety of substrates in coastal and estuarine environments, including seagrass blades, macroalgal surfaces, sandy sediments, and biogenic hard substrates such as shells and coral rubble. The species has been documented from tropical and subtropical marine habitats across the Indo-Pacific and Atlantic, with records from South American coastal waters as well as other warm marine regions. Cocconeis pinnata plays a significant ecological role in seagrass ecosystems, where epiphytic diatom communities including this species form a productive biofilm layer on leaf surfaces that serves as food for grazing invertebrates, sea urchins, and small fish. In areas of excessive nutrient loading, however, proliferation of epiphytic algae including diatoms can shade out the underlying seagrass, contributing to meadow decline. The production and dissolution of silica frustules by marine benthic diatoms contributes to the benthic silica cycle, linking biological productivity with the geochemistry of shallow coastal sediments. Species-level identification of Cocconeis taxa requires electron microscopy due to subtle morphological differences. Conservation status has not been formally assessed.
jaguar
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.
