肉足水薙鳥

肉足水薙鳥（中國大陸作淡足鸌，台灣作肉足水薙鳥）（學名：Ardenna carneipes），以前稱為 Puffinus carneipes 是一種中等大小的鸌. 它的羽毛是黑色的。有淡粉色的腳，和一個淡色的喙，喙端有明顯的黑色尖端。

Ardenna carneipes Gould, 1844

與同樣淡色喙的粉足鸌一起，形成Hemipuffinus超種，或許與大西洋的灰水薙鳥有近親關係。^[2][3]這些大型鸌是那些被分類到水薙鳥屬（Ardenna）的鳥類之一。^[4]

最近的基因分析表明，相對於南澳和西澳的鸌，與在太平洋的鸌之間有強烈的分化證據，這被認為是由於繁殖季節期間的歸巢性和覓食策略的差異所導致的。^[5]

Ardenna carneipes

2021年發表的一項分子系統發生學研究發現肉足鸌和粉足鸌（Ardenna creatopus）之間幾乎沒有基因差異。該研究的作者建議這兩個分類群可能更適合作為同種來考慮。^[6]

特徵

肉足水薙鳥體重約609克，翼長約310.2毫米，嘴峰長約47.8毫米，喙寬度約8.9毫米，喙厚度約12.1毫米，跗蹠長約52.1毫米，尾長約110.2毫米。肉足水薙鳥是候鳥，其棲息在開放的海洋及海島環境中，食性為肉食性，主要食物來源是水生動物。^[7]

分佈

南印度洋和西南太平洋；越冬於阿拉伯海和西北太平洋。^[8]

肉足鸌在群體中繁殖，並有兩個主要的繁殖區域；一個在西南太平洋包括豪勳爵島（22,654對^[9]，南澳（約1,800對在兩個島上繁殖^[10]和新西蘭北部（13,000對^[11]；另一個群體包括不超過36,000對在從盧恩角到里歇什群島沿西澳海岸的42個島嶼上繁殖。^[12]

另外有500對在印度洋的聖保羅島繁殖。記錄顯示在阿拉伯海的巴基斯坦阿斯托拉島上也有發現，但未被證實。最近的證據顯示該物種的種群在其大部分範圍內正在下降。^{[13][14][15][16][17][18]}該物種最近在澳大利亞被列為近危^[19]，在新西蘭被列為國家易危，^[20]並建議列入《保護信天翁和鸌類協議》。^[21] 在澳洲各省，該物種在西澳^[22]和新南威爾斯被列為易危，在南澳被列為稀有。

該物種作為（北方）夏季訪客出現在北太平洋，^[23]在漁撈過程中可能有大量被誤捕。^[24][25]該物種還受到氣候相關影響^[26]和顯著的重金屬污染的影響，其原因尚不完全清楚，但很可能是由於攝入大量塑膠導致，鳥類會將其誤認為漂浮在海面上的食物。^[27][28][29]
