Collared Sprite

The Collared Sprite, known scientifically as <em>Thainycteris aureocollaris</em>, is a bat belonging to the order Chiroptera. <em>Thainycteris aureocollaris</em> is distinguished by a golden or pale collar of fur around the neck region, which gives rise to the species epithet "aureocollaris" — meaning golden-collared in Latin. The species inhabits diverse terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Bats of this type are generally nocturnal, roosting during the day and emerging at night to forage on flying insects using echolocation. Detailed biological traits including typical lifespan, body length, and weight are poorly documented for this species in available literature. The Collared Sprite is currently assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, indicating that the global population is not currently considered to be at significant risk of decline.

bambu

Uma das espécies de bambu mais amplamente cultivadas globalmente, o bambu-comum cresce a taxas extraordinárias — até 91 cm por dia em condições ótimas — nas regiões tropicais e subtropicais da Ásia, África e Américas. Tecnicamente uma gramínea gigante em vez de uma árvore, os seus colmos podem atingir 20 metros e fornecem uma alternativa madeireira de rápida renovação para construção, papel, têxteis e alimentos. É um componente crítico de habitat para a vida selvagem, incluindo os pandas gigantes que dependem das florestas de bambu.
