Habitat & Geographic Range
白头海雕
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.
Widely distributed across Europe (8 countries), North America (United States), and South America (Ecuador).
comitan juniper

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。
comitan juniper
<em>Juniperus comitana</em>, commonly known as the Comitan Juniper, is a coniferous tree or shrub in the family Cupressaceae, native to Central America. This species is classified as Endangered on the IUCN Red List, reflecting significant population pressures across its restricted range. It typically inhabits temperate and boreal forest environments at higher elevations, often occurring in mountainous regions where cooler, drier conditions prevail. Like other members of the genus Juniperus, it often plays an important ecological role in its native habitat, providing cover and food resources for local wildlife. The Comitan Juniper faces ongoing threats from habitat loss due to deforestation, agricultural expansion, and land-use change within its limited geographic distribution. Its specialized requirements for higher-elevation forest environments make it particularly vulnerable to habitat degradation and climate-related shifts. Conservation efforts are critical to prevent further population decline of this Endangered conifer. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
