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.

돼지의 조상인 멧돼지는 최대 200kg에 달하는 강건한 잡식성 유제류로, 서유럽부터 아시아, 북아프리카까지 숲, 습지, 초원 등 다양한 서식지에 분포합니다. 높은 적응력과 왕성한 번식력으로 북아메리카와 오스트레일리아 등 여러 지역에서 침입종이 되었습니다. 땅을 파헤치는 습성으로 토양과 식생을 교란하여 산림 구조와 종자 발아에 크게 영향을 미칩니다.
