大翅鯨

座头鲸是大型鲸类中最具杂技表演性的物种之一,以繁殖季节雄性演唱的复杂而神秘的歌声著称,歌声有时持续数小时并随时间演变。体长可达16米,体重30吨,进行着哺乳动物中最长距离的洄游。分布于所有大洋,通过协作泡泡网捕食磷虾和小鱼。种群数量已从历史捕鲸后大体恢复。

Clitocybe agrestis is a small, pale agaric fungus in the family Tricholomataceae found across Western and Northern Europe, recorded from Belgium, Denmark, Norway, Portugal, and Sweden. It typically inhabits open grassy habitats including meadows, pastures, lawns, and roadsides, fruiting in autumn when moisture conditions are favorable. The cap is whitish to pale buff, often inrolled when young and becoming broadly flattened to slightly funnel-shaped with age, with crowded, decurrent gills and a short cylindrical stipe. The genus Clitocybe is characterized by the funnel-shaped or depressed cap and decurrent gill arrangement that gives many species a distinctive appearance. C. agrestis is a saprotrophic decomposer, breaking down plant litter and organic matter in grassland soils. It may be confused with toxic Clitocybe species, making accurate identification important. The species is listed as Least Concern, though European grassland fungi broadly face pressure from agricultural intensification, nitrogen deposition, and conversion of diverse meadows to monoculture pastures.
