Черногорлый манго

A large, striking hummingbird of tropical forests from southern Mexico to Argentina, black-throated mangos have dramatic sexual dimorphism — males display glittering black throat and breast with violet and green flanks and a bold purple tail, while females are white below with a central black stripe. Inhabiting forest edges, clearings, and gardens, they aggressively defend flowering trees. Males perform spectacular aerial display flights at treetop height. Listed as Least Concern across their broad neotropical range.

Column Hakea

<em>Hakea aculeata</em>, commonly known as column hakea, is an Endangered shrub in the family Proteaceae endemic to Australia. It is distinguished by its columnar growth habit and needle-like, sharply pointed leaves that serve as a structural adaptation to its native environment. The species faces significant conservation concern, reflected in its Endangered status on the IUCN Red List, indicating that it is at high risk of extinction in the wild. Column hakea typically occurs in heath and mallee shrubland habitats, where its narrow, erect form sets it apart from closely related hakea species. The species produces small flowers characteristic of the genus, which are adapted for pollination by native fauna. Detailed geographic range data are not available in the current record. Continued habitat loss, altered fire regimes, and limited natural distribution contribute to the precarious conservation status of this species.
