Common Bladder Moss

The common bladder moss (<em>Physcomitrium pyriforme</em>) is a small annual moss belonging to the family Funariaceae. It is classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List and is native to Europe and North America, with confirmed records from Luxembourg, Portugal, and the United States. <em>Physcomitrium pyriforme</em> typically colonizes disturbed, moist soils such as cultivated fields, riverbanks, and pond margins, where it forms low-growing green mats or cushions. The species is an ephemeral moss, completing its life cycle rapidly after disturbance events that expose bare soil. It is recognizable by its pear-shaped or inflated capsules borne on short setae, which give the species its common name. Spores are dispersed through the splitting of the capsule lid, and the plant often takes advantage of temporarily wet conditions for growth and reproduction. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.

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.
