''Rusa'' is a genus of deer from southern Asia. They have traditionally been included in ''Cervus'', and genetic evidence suggests this may be more appropriate than their present placement in a separate genus.〔Pitraa, Fickela, Meijaard, Groves (2004). ''Evolution and phylogeny of old world deer.'' Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution 33: 880–895.〕 Three of the four species have relatively small distributions in the Philippines and Indonesia, but the Sambar is more widespread, ranging from India east and north to China and south to the Greater Sundas. All are threatened by habitat loss and hunting in their native ranges, but three of the species have also been introduced elsewhere. ==Species== * ''Rusa alfredi'' – Visayan spotted deer, Philippine Spotted Deer * ''Rusa marianna'' – Philippine Brown Deer or Philippine Sambar * ''Rusa timorensis'' – Javan Rusa or Sunda Sambar * ''Rusa unicolor'' – Sambar 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「Rusa (genus)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
