Habitat

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.

Range

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.

Coleroa robertiani is an ascomycete fungus in the family Phacidiaceae, specialized as a parasite or saprotrophic organism on herb-Robert (Geranium robertianum) and related geraniums (family Geraniaceae). The species produces small, dark apothecia on senescent or infected leaf tissue, releasing ascospores that perpetuate the fungal life cycle. Like other Coleroa species, it forms characteristic setose (bristle-bearing) fruiting bodies that anchor to host plant surfaces. This fungus is recorded primarily from temperate European regions where Geranium robertianum grows in shaded, moist habitats such as hedgerows, woodland edges, and rocky slopes. Its host specificity to Geraniaceae reflects co-evolutionary relationships between fungal lineages and particular plant families. Coleroa robertiani is generally not considered an economically significant pathogen given the weed or naturalized status of its host plants in many areas, but it plays a role in regulating wild Geranium populations and cycling nutrients through decomposition of infected tissue. As with many microfungi on minor hosts, detailed ecological and distributional data are sparse, and molecular phylogenetic studies continue to refine its classification within the broader Rhytismatales.

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.
