偉格勒氏麥鷎

栗额金刚鹦鹉是一种中型金刚鹦鹉，分布于墨西哥南部至玻利维亚和巴西的中美洲和南美洲热带森林。主体羽色绿色，前额栗色，肩部红色，飞羽蓝色。它是真正金刚鹦鹉中最小的物种，栖息于森林边缘、稀树草原和次生林，常掠食农作物，在当地不受农民欢迎。它是受欢迎的笼养鸟，但野生种群因捕捉和森林砍伐而承受压力。

Chunky False Brook Salamander

The Chunky False Brook Salamander (Aquiloeurycea cephalica) is a Least Concern plethodontid salamander endemic to Mexico, found in cloud forest and humid montane habitats in the Sierra Madre Oriental and related mountain ranges. The genus Aquiloeurycea is a recently erected Mexican endemic genus segregated from the broader genus Pseudoeurycea, comprising several small, robustly built (hence 'chunky') salamanders associated with high-elevation forests. Like all plethodontids, A. cephalica is a lungless salamander that breathes entirely through its moist, vascularized skin and the lining of its mouth. It is a direct developer, skipping the aquatic larval stage entirely and laying eggs in terrestrial microhabitats such as rotting logs, leaf litter, and soil. A. cephalica inhabits cool, humid forests of pine-oak and cloud forest zones in northern Mexico, where it forages for small invertebrates in the leaf litter and soil. The IUCN assesses it as Least Concern due to its reasonably wide distribution within its montane range. Deforestation, cattle grazing, and the conversion of cloud forest to agriculture represent ongoing threats to populations throughout its range.
