giraffe

A girafa (Giraffa camelopardalis) é o animal terrestre mais alto da Terra, podendo atingir 5,5 metros de altura e pesar até 1.750 kg. Seu pescoço alongado, contendo as mesmas sete vértebras cervicais de todos os mamíferos, evoluiu para se alimentar de acácias nas savanas e bosques africanos. Animal social que vive em manadas soltas sem vínculos permanentes, comunica-se por infrassons e linguagem corporal. Vulnerável, com populações em declínio devido à perda de habitat e à caça ilegal.

Lyophyllum aemiliae é um cogumelo raro que cresce em tufos densos com chapéus de coloração pálida a castanho-acinzentada e lamelas densas. Habita solos ricos em nutrientes em florestas temperadas europeias e bordas de bosques. Este fungo sapróbio a fracamente parasítico decompõe a matéria orgânica do solo e é considerado criticamente raro nas avaliações micológicas europeias.
