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。
cluster fig
Ficus racemosa, commonly called the cluster fig or red river fig, is a large deciduous to semi-evergreen tree in the family Moraceae with a native range spanning tropical Asia, including the Indian subcontinent, Southeast Asia, and extending to northern Australia. Despite records suggesting Brazil and Taiwan, the species is most reliably native to South and Southeast Asia. The cluster fig is famous for its remarkable reproductive strategy: fruits grow directly from the trunk and major branches in dense clusters, a habit known as cauliflory. These figs are critical food resources for a wide array of frugivores including bats, birds, monkeys, and civets, making F. racemosa a keystone species in riparian and moist deciduous forests. Trees can reach 15–30 meters in height and develop buttressed bases when growing along riverbanks and in seasonally flooded areas. Like all figs, Ficus racemosa shares an obligate mutualism with its specific fig wasp pollinator, without which reproduction is impossible. Fruits have long been used in traditional medicine across South Asia to treat various ailments. The tree is classified as Least Concern by the IUCN, reflecting its wide distribution and adaptability, though local populations may face pressure from deforestation and river channelization in its native range.
