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。

<em>Collaria arcyrionema</em> is a myxomycete — a plasmodial slime mould — belonging to the class Myxomycetes within the phylum Mycetozoa. Slime moulds of the genus Collaria are not true fungi but are instead classified within the group Amoebozoa, reflecting their distinctive biology that combines amoeba-like feeding behaviour with a complex, multi-stage life cycle. <em>Collaria arcyrionema</em> produces small, stalked sporangia — spore-bearing structures — that are characteristic of the genus, typically forming on decaying organic matter such as dead wood, leaf litter, and damp substrate in forested environments. The species has a reported distribution in Brazil, Norway, and Sweden, with occurrence noted across parts of Europe and South America. Like other myxomycetes, <em>Collaria arcyrionema</em> plays a role in nutrient cycling by consuming bacteria and organic detritus during its plasmodial phase. Detailed biological traits including typical lifespan measures and physical dimensions are poorly documented for this species in available literature.
