Colt's-foot Bell

<em>Epiblema sticticana</em>, the colts-foot bell moth, is a tortricid moth in the family Tortricidae with known occurrences in Belgium, Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. This species is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN and occupies terrestrial and freshwater-associated habitats across its northern European range. The common name refers to the larval association with coltsfoot (<em>Tussilago farfara</em>) and possibly related Asteraceae, on which the caterpillars are believed to feed, a dietary habit typical of tortricid moths that specialise on particular host plant genera. Bell moths are named for the bell-shaped posture adults adopt when at rest on vegetation. <em>Epiblema sticticana</em> likely completes one or two generations per year within its temperate European range, with adults active during spring and summer months. The forewings typically display the intricate patterning of browns, greys, and strigulae characteristic of the genus, providing effective camouflage against bark and dead plant material. As a herbivorous insect, this species contributes to nutrient cycling through plant tissue consumption and serves as prey for insectivorous birds and bats. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.

gorilla

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.
