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。
Chrysoprase Mallee
The Chrysoprase Mallee (Eucalyptus repullulans) is a small, multi-stemmed mallee eucalyptus endemic to the southwestern corner of Western Australia. It grows in the mallee form characteristic of many Eucalyptus species in nutrient-poor, drought-prone environments: multiple lignotuberous stems arise from a swollen root crown (lignotuber), allowing rapid resprouting following wildfire or mechanical damage. E. repullulans typically inhabits sandy soils on heathlands and sandplains, often in association with kwongan vegetation dominated by Proteaceae and Myrtaceae. The species is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN, suggesting stable populations not currently under acute threat. Like many Western Australian mallees, it produces small to medium-sized white or cream flowers that provide nectar and pollen resources for native bees, honeyeaters, and other pollinators. The lignotuber enables long-term survival and regeneration in fire-prone landscapes typical of the Australian Mediterranean climate zone. Mallee eucalypts are ecologically important as structural vegetation components in landscapes where taller trees cannot establish. Conservation of Eucalyptus repullulans is supported through the broader protection of Southwest Australian Floristic Region habitats, one of the world's biodiversity hotspots.
