Thambetochen (original) (raw)
Thambetochen is an extinct genus of moa-nalo duck. It contains two species, the Maui Nui moa-nalo (T. chauliodous) and the smaller O'ahu moa-nalo (T. xanion). The former was found on Maui and Molokai on Hawaii, the latter was found on Oahu. These birds were large, flightless ducks, with robust legs but small wings, which had evolved in isolation, on islands without terrestrial mammals. Their beaks had tooth-like lamellae and their diet was plants which they digested through hindgut fermentation. These birds were likely driven to extinction when the islands were colonised by Polynesians.

| dbo:abstract | Thambetochen es un género extinto de pato, perteneciente al grupo extinto conocido como moa-nalo. Abarca a dos especies, el moa-nalo de Maui Nui (T. chauliodous) y el más pequeño moa-nalo de Oahu (T. xanion). Los restos de la primera especie fueron hallados en Maui y Molokai, mientras que la otra fue hallada en Oahu, ambas en Hawaii. Estas aves eran patos grandes no voladores, con patas robustas y pequeñas alas, que evolucionaron en aislamiento en islas en las que no había mamíferos terrestres. Sus picos poseían láminas aserradas, similares a dientes y su dieta consistía de plantas que digerían a través de fermentación. Probablemente estas aves se extinguieron cuando las islas fueron colonizadas por los pueblos polinesios. (es) Thambetochen is an extinct genus of moa-nalo duck.
