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。

Cliff Mining Bee

The Cliff Mining Bee, Andrena species in the family Andrenidae, is a solitary ground-nesting bee that excavates tunnels in cliff faces, earthen banks, and compacted sandy or loamy soils, where the loose or friable substrates exposed in cliff profiles provide ideal nesting conditions. Mining bees in the genus Andrena are among the most species-rich solitary bee genera in the world, with hundreds of species across the Holarctic region, many narrowly specialized in their choice of pollen host plants. Female cliff mining bees construct vertical or angled burrows in cliff faces, with lateral cells off the main shaft, each containing a pollen ball and a single egg. Males are typically smaller and emerge before females to establish territories near nesting sites. Many Andrena species are oligolectic, collecting pollen from only a small number of plant species, making their populations sensitive to the availability of specific flowering plants in the landscape surrounding nesting areas. Cliff and bank nesting habitats provide well-drained, sun-warmed substrates essential for brood development. The loss of natural cliff faces and earthen banks to development, vegetation succession, and quarrying reduces available nesting habitat for cliff mining bees.
