Habitat & Geographic Range

白头海雕

Habitat

Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, and flooded grasslands and savannas, among 10 distinct biome types spanning the Neotropic and Palearctic realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.

Range

Widely distributed across Europe (8 countries), North America (United States), and South America (Ecuador).

Cloud Forest Stream Frog

Habitat

Typically found in freshwater habitats, moist forests, and wetlands.

Range

Found in Mexico.

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。

Cloud Forest Stream Frog

Cloud forest stream frogs are hylid frogs in the genus Ptychohyla (family Hylidae) native to the montane cloud forests of Middle America, from southern Mexico through Central America. These medium-sized treefrogs inhabit rocky montane streams and waterfalls within dense cloud forest, where they breed in fast-flowing water and larvae develop attached to rocks using specialized oral suckers adapted to resist strong currents. Adults are typically greenish-brown with darker dorsal patterning providing camouflage against mossy stream margins and vegetation. They are nocturnal, foraging for insects and other invertebrates along stream courses and in adjacent cloud forest undergrowth. Several Ptychohyla species are restricted to single mountain ranges or small highland areas, making them highly vulnerable to habitat loss. The dual threat of chytridiomycosis caused by Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis and cloud forest loss through agricultural conversion has severely impacted populations of several Ptychohyla species, with multiple species now listed as Critically Endangered or potentially extinct following the wave of chytrid-associated amphibian population collapses that swept through Central American highland amphibian communities in the late 20th century.
