The eastern moa (Emeus crassus) is an extinct species of moa. When the first specimens were originally described by Richard Owen, they were placed within the genus Dinornis as three different species, but, was later split off into their own genus, Emeus. E. crassus is currently the only species of Emeus, as the other two species, E. casuarinus and E. huttonii are now regarded as synonyms of E. crassus. It has been long suspected that the "species" described as Emeus huttonii and E. crassus were males and females, respectively, of a single species. This has been confirmed by analysis for sex-specific genetic markers of DNA extracted from bone material; the females of E. crassus were 15-25% larger than males. This phenomenon — reverse size dimorphism — is not uncommon amongst ratites, being

  • 東部恐鳥(Emeus crassus)是一種已經滅絕的恐鳥。當第一個標本最由Richard Owen描述時,它們認為是的一種,但是後來被分裂成屬於東部恐鳥屬(Emeus)。目前,東部恐鳥是東部恐鳥屬中唯一的一種,因為其他兩種物種,現在被認為是雌鳥和雄鳥。 東部恐鳥的身高約1.5至1.8公尺。像其他恐鳥一樣,牠不能飛。牠的腳與其他恐鳥相比格外寬,使牠跑得非常緩慢。此種鳥的頭可能沒有羽毛。 東部恐鳥只住在紐西蘭南島的低地,如:森林,草原,山洞和灌木叢等,大約於西元1500年滅絕。 (zh)

  • Il moa orientale (Emeus crassus) è una specie estinta di moa, l'unica specie ascritta al genere Emeus. Era alto circa un metro e mezzo; le piume erano simili a peli e di colore beige.La caratteristica di quest'animale erano i piedi, eccezionalmente grandi rispetto al corpo, che rendevano l'animale piuttosto lento.Proprio a causa di questa sua lentezza, quest'animale fu cacciato dai primi colonizzatori della Nuova Zelanda fino all'estinzione.
