白头海雕

白头海雕是美国国鸟，也是美国生态保护史上的成功案例，曾因滴滴涕（DDT）的广泛使用而濒临灭绝，经保护措施的实施后种群数量已显著恢复。该物种在IUCN红色名录中被评估为无危（LC），以白色头颈和尾羽与深棕色体羽形成的鲜明对比为主要识别特征。它们主要以鱼类为食，也会捕食哺乳动物和腐肉。

Chocolate Tea Tree Orchid

The Chocolate Tea Tree Orchid (Dendrobium johannis) is an epiphytic to lithophytic orchid in the family Orchidaceae, endemic to northern Queensland, Australia and southern Papua New Guinea. It belongs to the vast genus Dendrobium, one of the largest orchid genera with over 1,800 species across tropical and subtropical Asia, the Pacific, and Australia. Dendrobium johannis produces cane-like pseudobulbs bearing narrow, leathery leaves, and clusters of small to medium-sized flowers with creamy white to pale yellow petals and a lip marked with chocolate-brown to maroon blotches and stripes — a patterning that may serve to attract specific bee pollinators through visual mimicry or reward signalling. In the wild, the species grows on tea trees (Leptospermum, Melaleuca), paperbarks, and other trees in seasonal tropical woodland, gallery forest, and savanna margins in the Top End and Cape York regions. It tolerates distinct wet and dry seasons, losing some foliage during dry conditions. The IUCN classifies this species as Near Threatened, reflecting pressures including habitat clearing for agriculture, altered fire regimes, and collection for the horticultural trade. It is cultivated by orchid enthusiasts worldwide and has been used in hybridisation programmes.
