Habitat & Geographic Range
Alequim
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, temperate broadleaf and mixed forests, and temperate grasslands and steppes, among 9 distinct biome types spanning the Indomalayan and Neotropic and Palearctic realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Distributed across Chile, Norway, Portugal, and Taiwan. Currently classified as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.
Papa-moscas-de-colar
Typically found in various aerial, terrestrial, and aquatic environments.
Distributed across Belgium, Denmark, Latvia, Norway, and Sweden.
Alequim
O tubarão-branco é o maior peixe predador da Terra, podendo atingir 6 metros de comprimento e 2.000 kg, habitando águas costeiras e oceânicas frias em todos os principais oceanos. São predadores de topo que empregam ataques de emboscada por baixo, direcionados principalmente a mamíferos marinhos, peixes de grande porte e aves marinhas. Apesar de sua terrível reputação, ataques não provocados a humanos são extremamente raros. Classificado como Vulnerável (VU), com populações em declínio devido ao corte de barbatanas, captura acidental e pesca direcionada, apesar das proteções legais vigentes em muitas jurisdições.
Papa-moscas-de-colar
<em>Ficedula albicollis</em>, the Collared Flycatcher, is a migratory passerine bird in the family Muscicapidae. This species is assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. It breeds across central and eastern Europe, with documented occurrences in Belgium, Denmark, Latvia, Norway, and Sweden, and winters in sub-Saharan Africa. The species inhabits deciduous and mixed forests, where it nests in tree cavities. The Collared Flycatcher is named for the broad white collar displayed by breeding males, which also show a black back and cap contrasting with white underparts. It is an aerial insectivore, catching flying insects in short sallies from exposed perches. <em>Ficedula albicollis</em> has been extensively studied as a model species in ecology and evolutionary biology, particularly regarding sexual selection, life history trade-offs, and the effects of climate change on migratory timing. Diet, population estimates, and biological measurements such as average length, weight, and lifespan are not specified in the available records. Its Least Concern status reflects stable European breeding populations.
