Bubalus depressicornis

Bubalus quarlesi

Etymology

From Indonesian anoa.

Pronunciation

• (General American) IPA^(key): /əˈnoʊə/

• Audio (Southern England):

  (file)

Noun

anoa (plural anoas)

1. Either of two related species of small Indonesian water buffalo similar in appearance to deer; Bubalus quarlesi or Bubalus depressicornis.
   • 1998, Jane Whitten, Tropical Wildlife of Southeast Asia‎, page 16:

     Anoas need undisturbed forest and cannot adapt to logged areas. The bad-tempered anoa with its sharp short horns is greatly feared, but in spite of this it is periodically suggested as a potential domestic animal. Anyone who has met with an anoa ridicules this idea.

   • 2000, Michael Alvard, “The Impact of Traditional Subsistence Hunting and Trapping on Prey Populations: Data from Wana Horticuluralists of Upland Central Sulwesi, Indonesia”, in John G. Robinson, Elizabeth L. Bennett, editors, Hunting for Sustainability in Tropical Forests, page 223:

     The Celebes pig and, to a lesser degree, the anoa were the focus of the Wana's large game interests.

   • 2011, Colin Groves, Peter Grubb, Ungulate Taxonomy, unnumbered page:

     They reported seeing mountain anoa trophies for sale, and also a living captive animal, in the Toraja highlands; probable lowland anoas in the Gunung Tangkoko National Park on the N tip of Sulawesi, and evidence of both kinds of anoas in or near the Dumoga-Bone National Park.

Usage notes

The two species may constitute a subgenus of Bubalus. See anoa on Wikipedia.Wikipedia

Synonyms

• (small water buffalo): dwarf buffalo, midget buffalo, sapiutan

Hyponyms

• (small water buffalo): lowland anoa (Bubalus depressicornis), mountain anoa (Bubalus quarlesi)
