The northern nail-tail wallaby (''Onychogalea unguifera'') also known as the sandy nail-tail wallaby, is a species of macropod found in Queensland, Western Australia and Northern Territory. Unlike the bridled nail-tail wallaby (''O. fraenata''), the northern nail-tail wallaby is not a threatened species.〔 The only other member of the genus, the crescent nail-tail wallaby (''O. lunata''), is extinct. The northern nail-tail wallaby by far the largest species in the genus ''Onychogalea''. It is a solitary, nocturnal browser feeding on a variety of foliage. It is a sandy colour, which gave rise to its other common name. Two subspecies have been defined, but their validity is disputed. * ''O. u. unguifera'' from the northwestern part of its range; * ''O. u. annulicauda'' from the northeastern part of its range. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Northern nail-tail wallaby」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
