Steller's sea eagle
Steller's sea eagle (''Haliaeetus pelagicus'')〔Etymology: ''Haliaeetus'', New Latin for "sea-eagle". ''pelagicus'', "of the open seas", from Ancient Greek ''pelagos'', the ocean.〕 is a large bird of prey in the family Accipitridae found in coastal northeastern Asia and mainly preys on fish and water birds. On average, it is the heaviest eagle in the world, at about , but may be below the harpy eagle (''Harpia harpyja'') and Philippine eagle (''Pithecophaga jefferyi'') in some standard measurements.〔Ferguson-Lees & Christie (2001). ''Raptors of the World.'' ISBN 0-7136-8026-1〕 This bird is named after the German naturalist Georg Wilhelm Steller.
==Etymology==
This species was first described as ''Aquila pelagica'' by Peter Simon Pallas, in either 1811 or 1826 depending on the source. Subsequently, many generic and specific names have been variously spelled, e.g., ''Haliaetus pelagicus'', ''Haliaetos pelagica'', ''Faico leucopterus'', ''Faico imperator'', ''Thalassaetus pelagicus'', ''Thalassaetus macrurus'', ''Haliaeetus macrurus'', and most recently ''Thallasoaetus pelagicus''. Besides its normal common name, the species has sometimes been referred to as the Pacific eagle or white-shouldered eagle. In Russian, the eagle has been called ''morskoi orel'' (sea eagle), ''pestryi morskoi orel'' (mottled sea eagle) or ''beloplechii orlan'' (white-shouldered eagle). In Japanese, it is called ''0-washi'' (large eagle or great eagle).〔 (Species Synopsis Steller'S Sea Eagle ). Fadr.msu.ru. Retrieved on 2012-08-21.〕
