cimbalária
<em>Cymbalaria muralis</em>, commonly known as Coliseum Ivy or Kenilworth Ivy, is a trailing flowering plant in the family Plantaginaceae. It has not been formally assessed under the IUCN Red List. The species has a wide global distribution, documented in Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, Oceania, and South America, with specific country records including Albania, Australia, Belarus, Belgium, and Brazil. Originally native to the Mediterranean region of southern Europe, it has spread widely and often naturalizes on stone walls, rocky surfaces, and pavements. The plant is characterized by small, lobed leaves and tiny purple-and-yellow flowers resembling miniature snapdragons. An interesting adaptation of <em>Cymbalaria muralis</em> is its phototropic behavior: the flower stalks bend toward light during flowering to facilitate pollination, then turn away from light after fertilization, directing developing seed capsules into crevices in walls where seeds can germinate. Population estimates, population trend, diet, and biological measurements are not documented in available records. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
Tiger
O maior felino selvagem da Terra, o tigre pode superar 300 kg e habita florestas do Extremo Oriente russo ao Sudeste Asiatico. E um predador solitario de emboscada com seu caracteristico pelo listrado de laranja e preto que fornece camuflagem na luz filtrada.
