翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Procellaria ： ウィキペディア英語版 Procellaria Procellaria is a genus of southern ocean long-winged seabirds related to prions, and within the order Procellariiformes. The Black Petrel (''Procellaria parkinsoni'') ranges in the Pacific Ocean, and as far north as Central America. The Spectacled Petrel (''Procellaria consicillata'') is confined to the Atlantic Ocean, and the Westland Petrel (''Procellaria westlandica'') to the Pacific Ocean. The White-chinned (''Procellaria aequincotialis'') and Grey Petrel (''Procellaria cinerea'') range throughout the higher latitudes of the Southern Ocean. ==Taxonomy== ''Procellaria'' is a member of the family Procellariidae and the order Procellariiformes. As members of Procellariiformes, they share certain characteristics. First they have tubular nostrils called naricorns. This feature gives them their common name, tubenoses. The opening to the nostril is located differently in some birds. These birds have the opening on top of the upper bill. Second, they produce a stomach oil that contains wax esters and triglycerides. This oil fills two functions. When predators threaten the birds or their chick or egg, they spit the substance on them. This substance has an awful smell, and mats the feathers down, degrading their usefulness. Also, they can digest the wax esters for a high energy source of food, during long flights or the period of time that they are incubating their egg or caring for their young. They also have a uniquely structured bill, with seven to nine distinct horny plates.〔Double, M. C. (2003)〕 Finally, they have a salt gland that is located above their nasal passages and helps desalinate their body, as they drink seawater. They excrete the salty waste out their nose.〔Ehrlich, Paul R.
