<em>Collema furfuraceum</em> is a species belonging to the genus <em>Collema</em>, a group of cyanolichens that form symbiotic associations between fungi and cyanobacteria. This species is classified as Extinct, representing one of the more severe conservation outcomes for organisms in its taxonomic group. Historical records indicate its presence across several European nations, including Denmark, Norway, Portugal, and Sweden, suggesting it once occupied a reasonably broad range within the continent. The habitats it occupied were consistent with those favored by cyanolichens, typically moist, shaded substrates such as bark, rock faces, or soil in areas with high humidity and low disturbance. Dietary ecology, as applicable to a lichen, involves photosynthetic and nitrogen-fixing activity carried out by its cyanobacterial partner rather than active foraging. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. The extinction of <em>Collema furfuraceum</em> underscores the vulnerability of lichen-forming organisms to habitat degradation, changes in air quality, and loss of old-growth forest environments.

帝企鹅

帝企鹅是世界上体型最大的企鹅,身高可达1.2米,体重达45千克,栖息于南极大陆极端恶劣的环境中。它们在隆冬的黑暗中、零下60°C以下的严寒里繁殖,雄鸟将唯一的蛋置于脚背上,藏于育卵囊下孵化长达65天,而雌鸟则在此期间出海觅食。数千只帝企鹅组成的群体通过循环交换位置、使个体轮流经过温暖的核心区域这一抱团取暖行为,堪称合作生存的典范。
