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。
Coarse-leaved Mallee
Eucalyptus grossa, the coarse-leaved mallee, is a multi-stemmed shrubby eucalyptus in the family Myrtaceae endemic to southwestern Western Australia. Like other mallee eucalypts, it grows from a lignotuber, a swollen underground rootstock that enables rapid regeneration after fire, drought, or mechanical damage. The species reaches 1.5–4 meters in height and is immediately recognizable by its unusually large, thick, and leathery leaves with a coarse texture that gives the species its common name; the leaves are among the broadest of any mallee eucalyptus. Large showy flowers with abundant golden stamens attract honeyeaters and other nectarivores. Eucalyptus grossa inhabits sandy soils of the Swan Coastal Plain and adjacent Darling Range foothills, growing in kwongan heath, mallee scrub, and transition zones between heathland and jarrah woodland. It is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN, being relatively common and widespread within its coastal and near-coastal southwestern Australian range, though many surrounding habitats have been cleared for agriculture and urban development around Perth. The species is commonly cultivated as an ornamental shrub in Australian gardens and is used in revegetation programs due to its drought tolerance and attractive flowering.
