Sulid

Sulídeos

The sulídeos constitute a family of ciconiiformes birds, that comprises 3 genera and 10 species of seabirds known as alcatraz, atobá or goose-patola. The sulídeos have vast geographic distribution, being able to be found in all the oceans, except in the region of Antarctica. Atobás are medium to large birds, with length 64 to 100 cm in length and weight up to 3.6 kg. Some species exhibit sexual dimorphism with females being larger and heavier than males. The plumage is very variable from species to species, but usually it is in shades of brown and black, being white in the ventral zone. The wings are long and adapted to long flights and positioned in the posterior half of the body. The beak has a conical shape and serrated edges. Adults do not have feathers on the face and throat area, which can be very colorful, such as paws, in shades of blue, red or orange. The eyes are located in front of the face, which confers binocular vision to the atobás. The legs are located in the posterior half of the body and end in totipalmados feet, with fingers joined by interdigital membrane.

Os olhos estão localizados na frente da cara, o que confere visão binocular aos atobás.
