Hartmann's mountain zebra

名词 n.

英文释义

名词 n.
  1. A mountain zebra of subspecies Equus zebra hartmannae, found in southwestern Angola and western Namibia, and having a dewlap and an unstriped belly.
    — The Zebra was formerly found in all the mountain-ranges of Cape Colony, but is now restricted to the Cradock district, where it is protected by law. It was from this locality that the specimen exhibited in the Lower Mammal Gallery was obtained. The species is represented in Angola by Penrice's Zebra (E. zebra penricei), and in Damaraland by Hartmann's zebra (E. z. hartmannae), which are, however, perhaps not separable from one another.
