Collared Inca

콜롬비아에서 볼리비아에 이르는 안데스 산악림에 서식하는 중대형 벌새인 목테두리잉카벌새는 넓은 흰색 가슴 띠와 비행 중 잘 보이는 뚜렷한 흰색 꼬리 반점을 가진 눈에 띄는 흑백 깃털을 가지고 있습니다. 해발 1,700-3,200미터의 삼림 및 삼림 가장자리에 서식하며 다양한 꽃식물에서 먹이를 찾고 안데스의 대형 꽃 관목과 나무의 중요한 수분 매개자입니다. 대조적인 흰 꼬리 반점은 제자리 비행 중 두드러지게 번쩍이며 종 식별에 도움을 줍니다.

Colonial bentgrass

<em>Agrostis capillaris</em>, colonial bentgrass, is a perennial grass in the family Poaceae with an extensive native range across Europe and naturalised populations in North America, South America, and Oceania, including Australia and New Zealand. This species is highly adaptable, colonising tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, temperate grasslands, disturbed soils, roadsides, and cultivated landscapes within the Neotropical realm. It is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN. Colonial bentgrass is a fine-leaved, low-growing species often used in lawn and sports turf applications due to its tolerance for close mowing and its capacity to form dense, even swards. Its panicle inflorescences bear numerous small spikelets on delicate, hair-like branches, giving the species a feathery appearance when in flower. In its naturalised range, <em>Agrostis capillaris</em> can become invasive, competing with native grass species in acid grasslands and open heathlands. The species tolerates acidic and nutrient-poor soils, attributes that contribute to its widespread persistence in degraded landscapes. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
