''Phalcoboenus'' is a small genus of birds of prey in the family Falconidae. They are found in barren, open habitats in the Andes, Patagonia and the Falkland Islands. The four species are almost entirely allopatric. The adults are distinctive, with bare yellow, orange or red facial skin and cere, and a black plumage with variable amounts of white. Juveniles are overall brown with pale pinkish-grey facial skin and cere. They are highly opportunistic and typically seen walking on the ground, where they will feed on carrion and virtually any small animal they can catch. ==Species== *Carunculated caracara, ''Phalcoboenus carunculatus'' *Mountain caracara, ''Phalcoboenus megalopterus'' *White-throated caracara, ''Phalcoboenus albogularis'' *Striated caracara, ''Phalcoboenus australis'' 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「Phalcoboenus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
