Habitat & Geographic Range

瓶鼻海豚

Habitat

Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, and tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, among 12 distinct biome types. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.

Range

Widely distributed across Asia (Taiwan), Europe (6 countries), and South America (Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela).

错那棘蛙

Habitat

Typically found in freshwater habitats, moist forests, and wetlands.

瓶鼻海豚

作为研究最广泛、最受认可的海豚物种，宽吻海豚栖息于全球从沿岸浅水到远洋的温暖和温带海域。高度智能，大脑相对体型较大，展示自我认知、复杂交流和社会学习。生活在流动的分裂-融合社会中，合作围捕鱼群。是海洋生态系统健康的关键指示物种。

错那棘蛙

<em>Nanorana conaensis</em>, commonly known as the Cona Paa Frog, is a small amphibian in the family Dicroglossidae, a diverse group of frogs distributed across South and East Asia. The genus Nanorana is characteristic of high-elevation Himalayan and Tibetan Plateau habitats, and <em>Nanorana conaensis</em> is presumed to occur in the Cona region of southeastern Tibet, China, where it likely inhabits cold freshwater streams, moist alpine meadows, and the margins of wetlands at considerable elevation. Like other paa frogs, it is presumed to be a generalist carnivore, typically consuming invertebrates such as insects, worms, and small crustaceans detected by sight near water. The species is currently classified as Data Deficient by the IUCN, reflecting the limited biological and distributional information available. Geographic range boundaries, population size, and population trend data remain unconfirmed, partly due to the remote and politically restricted nature of its presumed habitat on the Tibetan Plateau. Biological traits including average body size, lifespan, reproductive seasonality, and clutch size remain poorly documented in the primary scientific literature. Conservation threats potentially include habitat degradation from infrastructure development, climate-driven changes to alpine hydrology, and human disturbance in high-altitude wetland ecosystems.
