Anchovy-Eater

大白鲨是地球上最大的掠食性鱼类,栖息于全球主要大洋的凉爽近岸和近海水域,体长可达6米,体重可达2,000千克。它是顶级捕食者,以海洋哺乳动物、大型鱼类和海鸟为主要猎物,从下方发动伏击。尽管声名狼藉,对人类的非激怒性攻击极为罕见。由于鱼翅贸易、兼捕和针对性捕捞,种群数量下降,尽管在许多地区受到法律保护,仍被列为易危(VU)。

Symphytocarpus amaurochaetoides是一种粘菌(黏霉),在森林环境中的腐木和植物残骸上形成黑色聚合孢子囊。它属于一类在可移动的营养原质团和生殖孢子囊阶段之间交替的生物群。与其他粘菌一样,它以细菌和腐殖质为食,参与林地生境的微生物生态。
