Onca

Habitat

Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, and tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, among 6 distinct biome types spanning the Neotropic and Oceanian realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.

Clitocybe leucodiatreta is a pale agaric fungus in the family Tricholomataceae native to temperate European forests. The species name combines 'leuco' (white) with the related species epithet 'diatreta,' suggesting morphological similarity to Clitocybe diatreta but with a distinctly paler, more whitish appearance. It inhabits deciduous and mixed woodland floors, fruiting in autumn among accumulated leaf litter where it acts as a saprotrophic decomposer of organic matter. The fruiting bodies display the characteristic Clitocybe form: a depressed to funnel-shaped cap, crowded decurrent gills, and a cylindrical stipe. Distinguishing closely related small, pale Clitocybe species requires careful examination of spore morphology, odor, taste, and ecological context, with molecular phylogenetics increasingly used to resolve taxonomic boundaries within this challenging genus. C. leucodiatreta represents part of the remarkable diversity of saprotrophic fungi in European temperate forests, ecosystems where macrofungal diversity rivals that of the plant and invertebrate communities they help sustain through decomposition.

Onca

O maior felino das Américas, atingindo até 100 kg com corpo robusto e musculoso e pelagem com padrão de rosetas característico. Encontrado do México até a América do Sul, com populações mais expressivas na Amazônia e no Pantanal. Nadadores poderosos e predadores de topo, os jaguares desempenham papel fundamental na regulação das populações de presas. Classificado como Quase Ameaçado, com sua área de ocorrência diminuindo devido ao desmatamento.
