About: Didunculus

An Entity of Type: insect, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The tooth-billed pigeons are the only genus (Didunculus) of the subfamily Didunculinae, in the pigeon and dove family, (Columbidae). It has no close living relatives, but it has been shown to be genetically close to the dodo, and the genus name Didunculus means "little dodo". The jaw and tongue structure, and the superficially parrotlike bill have suggested a relationship to the parrots, but these features have arisen from its specialised diet rather than any real relationship.

  • دَدَنْقول أو حمام ذو منقار مسنن (الاسم العلمي: Didunculus)، جنس طير من فصيلة الحماميات. وهو الجنس الوحيد في فُصيلة الددنقوليات. ولا يوجد له أقرباء على قيد الحياة، ولكن ثبت أنه قريب وراثيًا من طائر الدودو، ويعني اسم Didunculus «طائر الدودو الصغير». (ar)

  • Didunculus é um gênero de aves da família dos pombos, a Columbidae. Compreende apenas duas espécies, sendo uma ainda viva, D. strigirostris, e outra extinta, a . Ambas sem "parentes" próximos vivos próximos. Estudos mostraram que são geneticamente próximos do dodô e o próprio termo Didunculus significa "pequeno dodô". A anatomia da mandíbula e língua, e sua aparência parecida com os papagaios sugeriram um parentescos com os mesmos, porém essas características evoluíram devido a sua dieta especializada, e não pela linhagem.
