夏威夷僧海豹(學名:Neomonachus schauinslandi)是新僧海豹屬下的一種瀕危物種,原產於夏威夷群島,因而得名。[2]此外它也是夏威夷灰白蝙蝠之外當地唯一的原生哺乳動物。[3]因為人類的過度捕殺和棲息地破壞,夏威夷僧海豹的數量現僅有1,100左右。[4][5][6]
語源學
[编辑]夏威夷僧海豹在當地語言中稱為ʻIlio-holo-i-ka-uaua,意思是“在波浪中奔跑的狗”。其學名中的種加詞則是來自1899年于在萊桑島發現了夏威夷僧海豹頭骨的德國科學家雨果·赫爾曼·绍因斯兰(Hugo Hermann Schauinsland)。[7]
描述
[编辑]夏威夷僧海豹有著灰色的毛皮、白色的腹部,身體修長;頭部扁平而較小。[8][9]其體格使得其可以在深海珊瑚礁里尋覓魚蝦及章魚、烏賊等食物。[10]在不捕獵時,它們會躺在西北夏威夷群島的沙灘上曬太陽。[11]成年夏威夷海豹重170—205公斤(375—452英磅),體長2.1—2.3米(6英尺11英寸—7英尺7英寸)。[8]
