Range

Found across Europe (7 countries) and North America (Canada, United States).

gorilla

Habitat

Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, and flooded grasslands and savannas, among 4 distinct biome types within the Afrotropic biogeographic realm. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.

Range

Distributed across Cameroon, Congo (Republic), Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon. Currently classified as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.

Common sawfly

<em>Hoplocampa brevis</em>, the plum sawfly or common sawfly, is a hymenopteran insect in the family Tenthredinidae. The species is distributed across Europe and has been introduced to parts of North America, with records from Canada and the United States, typically in association with commercial plum and cherry orchards. Adults are small, wasp-like insects approximately 4–5 millimeters in length, with pale yellow-brown coloration. Females lay eggs inside flower buds of <em>Prunus</em> species during blossoming, and the hatching larvae burrow into developing fruitlets, feeding on the contents before exiting to pupate in the soil. Larval feeding causes fruitlets to drop prematurely, and infestations can cause economically significant losses in plum and damson production. The species is not currently evaluated on the IUCN Red List. Adults feed on nectar and pollen, and the species typically produces one generation per year, with adults emerging in spring coinciding with the blossoming period of host trees. The larvae are creamy white with a brownish head capsule and produce a distinctive, unpleasant odor when disturbed. Biological traits such as average lifespan, body weight, and detailed non-larval dietary composition remain poorly documented in standardized ecological databases.

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.
