Common Cone-headed Grasshopper

<em>Acrida ungarica</em>, commonly known as the common cone-headed grasshopper, is a large grasshopper in the family Acrididae. This species is notable for its distinctively elongated, conical head that gives it a slender, streamlined appearance. It typically inhabits open grasslands, meadows, scrublands, and the margins of wetlands, where tall grasses provide both food and cover. <em>Acrida ungarica</em> is a phytophagous species that feeds primarily on grasses and other herbaceous plants. Its coloration varies from green to brownish-yellow, offering effective camouflage in its grassy habitat. The species is distributed across parts of Europe and western Asia. It is assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, with no major threats identified to its populations. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.

Mealy Parrot / Mealy Amazon

아마존앵무 중 가장 큰 종 중 하나인 밀가루아마존은 청회색 머리와 깃털에 독특한 분말 같은 광택을 가진 섬세한 분말녹색 깃털이 특징이며, 이로 인해 이름이 붙여졌다. 멕시코 남부에서 중앙아메리카와 남미 대부분 지역(볼리비아, 브라질)까지 저지대 열대 숲에 서식한다. 쌍이나 소규모 무리를 지어 이동한다. 전 세계적으로 최소관심종이나 서식지 손실과 애완동물 거래로 인해 지역적으로 영향을 받는다.
