沼泽鹞(学名:Circus approximans,毛利语:kāhu),又称澳大拉西亚沼泽鹞、澳大拉西亚鹞或沼泽鹰,是鹰形目鹰科鹞属的一种大型、苗条的猛禽。[2]主要以各种哺乳动物、鸟类或蛋、两栖或爬虫等各种动物为食。[3]目前其族群趋势被评为无危。[1][4]
这个物种广泛分布于澳大利亚、纽西兰及大洋洲和西南太平洋地区的许多岛屿上,通常栖息于湿地和水分充足的开阔地带。[1]沼泽鹞自化石证据证明其原本并不在当地活动,而是直到第一批波利尼西亚人移入(早于1280年)并开发当地森林的1320—1350年时,这种鸟类才开始于该地定居。[5][6][7]
该物种的正式命名者美国冒险家蒂希安·皮尔,他于1848或1849年完整描述了这种猛禽。[8][3]其模式产地位于斐济的瓦努阿岛,没有亚种变化。[2][3]属名Circus来自希腊语dendron,这名称原指称一种神话中的鹰,后被认为其原型为白尾鹞(该词原意为“圆圈”,指其盘旋的样子)。[9]:133而种小名approximans则为拉丁语的“接近、靠近”之意。[9]:51
在外观上,沼泽鹞的颜色会像是深色版本的白头鹞,而雌性的羽毛颜色比雄性更深,腹部则呈红褐色。[3]其体重平均约746.2公克,鸟喙宽平均约11.9毫米、深平均约16.4毫米、嘴峰长平均约39.5毫米;翼长约406.9毫米;跗跖约89.3毫米;尾长约233.2毫米。[10]
