Collared Sprite

The Collared Sprite, known scientifically as <em>Thainycteris aureocollaris</em>, is a bat belonging to the order Chiroptera. <em>Thainycteris aureocollaris</em> is distinguished by a golden or pale collar of fur around the neck region, which gives rise to the species epithet "aureocollaris" — meaning golden-collared in Latin. The species inhabits diverse terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Bats of this type are generally nocturnal, roosting during the day and emerging at night to forage on flying insects using echolocation. Detailed biological traits including typical lifespan, body length, and weight are poorly documented for this species in available literature. The Collared Sprite is currently assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, indicating that the global population is not currently considered to be at significant risk of decline.

Common Oak

英国栎（Quercus robur）是欧洲最重要、分布最广的落叶乔木之一，寿命可逾千年，高达40米，所支撑的生物多样性超过欧洲任何其他树种，超过2300种昆虫、真菌、地衣、苔藓和鸟类直接依赖成熟栎树为生。分布于欧洲全境至西亚的温带森林，其坚硬耐久的木材在历史上是造船、建筑和制桶的基础材料。
