Chocholatka černohřbetá (Cephalophus dorsalis) je druh antilopy. Obývá lesy západní a jižní Afriky. Byla objevena britským zoologem Johnem Edwardem Grayem roku 1846. Obě pohlaví dorůstají 44–50 centimetrů v kohoutku, váží kolem 20 kilogramů a parohy dosahují délky 5 až 8 centimetrů.
Chocholatka je převážně noční zvíře. Jeho největším predátorem je leopard. Chocholatka se živí většinou ovocem ale mezi její potravu patří také zvířecí produkty jako například ptačí vejce. Samice dosahují dospělosti po 18 měsících. Chocholatka se průměrně dožívá 17–18 let.
Chocholatka je velice podobná antilopám. Typická délka je kolem 76-105 centimetrů a výška v kohoutku kolem 50 centimetrů. Jejich váha dosahuje 20 kilogramů. Chocholatky černohřbeté nemají pohlavní dimorfismus.
Obě pohlaví mají červeno-hnědou barvu. Na hřbetu mají černý pruh, který vede od hlavy až na ocas. Nohy má černé a v horní části přechází opět v červeno-hnědou barvu. Kvůli tomu, že chocholatka je noční zvíře, má velké černé oči.
Chocholatky preferují ovoce jako třeba mango. Také se živí palmu olejnou, kakaovníkem aj. Existují také zmínky o tom, že chocholatky se živí drobnými ptáky, termity, mravenci nebo mršinou.
K roku 1999 bylo napočítáno kolem 725,000 kusů a od té doby jejich populace stále klesá, kvůli domorodým kmenům a predátorům, kteří je loví. Mezi hlavní predátory chocholatky patří leopardi.[2]

The bay duiker (Cephalophus dorsalis), also known as the black-striped duiker and the black-backed duiker, is a forest-dwelling duiker native to western and southern Africa. It was first described by British zoologist John Edward Gray in 1846. Two subspecies are identified. The bay duiker is reddish-brown and has a moderate size. Both sexes reach 44–49 cm (17–19 in) at the shoulder. The sexes do not vary considerably in their weights, either; the typical weight range for this duiker is 18–23 kg (40–51 lb). Both sexes have a pair of spiky horns, measuring 5–8 cm (2.0–3.1 in). A notable feature of this duiker is the well-pronounced solid stripe of black extending from the back of the head to the tail.
The bay duiker is a nocturnal animal. It tends to remain solitary, but pairs can also be observed. The leopard is the main predator of this duiker. It mainly prefers fruits, but may also feed on animal matter such as bird eggs. Females may conceive by the age of 18 months. Breeding occurs throughout the year. Gestation lasts about 240 days, following which generally a single offspring is born. The lifespan of the bay duiker is typically 17 to 18 years.
The bay duiker prefers old-growth or primary forests. It has been historically overhunted across its range for bushmeat. The survival of the bay duiker is also threatened by human settlement and agricultural expansion due to this duiker's preference for old-growth forests, and habitat degradation. The bay duiker is, however, still a common duiker species, and is classified as near threatened by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources.
Bay duiker
Phylogenetic relationships of the bay duiker (Johnston et.al. 2012)The bay duiker was first described by British zoologist John Edward Gray in 1846.[3] The generic name probably comes from the combination of the New Latin word cephal, meaning head, and the Greek word lophos, meaning crest.[4] The specific name dorsalis is a Latin word referring to the back surface of an object.[5] The common name "duiker" comes from the Afrikaans word duik, or Dutch dūken (both mean "diver")[6] owing to the tendency of this antelope to seek cover in bushes.[7] The bay duiker is also known as the black-striped duiker and the black-backed duiker.[8]
A 2001 phylogenetic study divided Cephalophus into three distinct lineages: the giant duikers, east African red duikers and west African red duikers. The bay duiker was classified as a giant duiker along with the yellow-backed duiker (C. silvicultor), Abbott's duiker (C. spadix), and Jentink's duiker (C. jentinki).[9] In 2012, Anne R. Johnston (of the University of Orleans) and colleagues constructed a cladogram of the subfamily Cephalophinae (duiker) based on mitochondrial analysis. They showed that within the "giant duiker" group, the bay duiker formed a clade with Jentink's duiker, and the zebra duiker is sister to this clade. Similarly, Abbott's duiker and the yellow-backed duiker form a clade sister to Sylvicapra. The bay duiker and Jentink's duiker probably evolved during the Pleistocene, less than 2.5 million years ago.[10]
Although the species may be monotypic, a 2003 paper identified two subspecies of the bay duiker:[11][12]
The bay duiker is a moderately sized antelope; the typical head-and-body length is 76–103 centimetres (30–41 in).[8] Both sexes reach 44–49 centimetres (17–19 in) at the shoulder. The sexes do not vary considerably in their weights either; the typical weight range for this duiker is 18–23 kilograms (40–51 lb).[13] Hence, sexual dimorphism in this species is not as remarkable as in other bovids, though females are often larger than males.[8] The tail, black on the outside but white in the inner parts, is 9–11 centimetres (3.5–4.3 in) long.[13] The tail of the eastern bay duiker terminates in a white tuft.[8] Both sexes possess a pair of spiky horns, measuring 5–8 centimetres (2.0–3.1 in). Rowland Ward, however, recorded a maximum horn length of 12.3 centimetres (4.8 in) from Yokadouma (Cameroon).[13] The horns of females are generally narrower.[8]
Both sexes have a bright reddish-brown coat. The ventral parts and the flanks are all reddish-brown, and the legs dark brown. A notable feature of this duiker is the well-pronounced solid stripe of black extending from the back of the head to the tail. This stripe is narrower in females.[8] Due to its nocturnal nature, the bay duiker has large conspicuous eyes. Whiskers can be observed above the eyes and around the nostrils. The patches of white fur around the whiskers are in sharp contrast to the dark reddish face.[13] Juveniles have a dark coat, that develops the stripes and chestnut to reddish-brown color gradually. The face is marked by a dark region from the nose to the forehead, separated from the rest of the face by two light brown furrows extending above or circling its eyes. Above the eyes and on the lips and chin white spots can be seen. The head has a diminutive crest (a tuft of hair), and is dark brown.[8] The eastern bay duiker is larger and heavier than the western bay duiker, with larger ears and darker coloration. The dorsal stripe is wider and lighter in color in the eastern bay duiker.[8]
The bay duiker is similar to several other duikers. The red duiker can not be readily distinguished from the bay duiker. Though Ogilby's duiker resembles the bay duiker in size and pelage color, the ventral side is paler and the dorsal stripe starts from the shoulders instead of the back of the head.[8] Additionally, the body posture and horn characteristics of the two species differ to a large extent.[14] The bay duiker, as well as the Ogilby's duiker, are remarkably similar to the black duiker, except for the pelage coloration.[15] The dorsal stripe of Peters's duiker also begins at the shoulders but widens to cover the whole of the rump, as does the fainter stripe on the white-bellied duiker. The bay duiker can be easily told apart from the black-fronted duiker and Weyns's duiker, that lack stripes.[8]
The bay duiker is a nocturnal animal, and consequently little is known of its behavioral patterns. During the day, the bay duiker rests against trees or in thickets. It tends to remain solitary, but pairs can also be observed. The bay duiker exhibits remarkable alertness. It depends heavily on its sense of smell for foraging and detecting potential danger. Individuals communicate through preorbital gland secretions and excrement. The leopard is the main predator of this duiker.[8][13] Eagles,[7] bonobos and mandrills[16] may also prey on the bay duiker. An alarmed individual becomes motionless, and might leap to flee.[8]
The bay duiker mainly prefers fruits. It feeds on the large fruits of Irvingia species (wild mango), Detarium macrocarpum and the spherical fruits of Mammea africana. Other fruits the duiker may eat are those of Ricinodendron heudelotii and oil-palms, the orange ones of Chrysophyllum beguei, the olive-like ones of Pseudospondias longifolia, the green plums of Panda oleosa and those of Cola rostrata, that resemble cocoa pods. The bay duiker extracts the pulp from the seeds, making a grating sound. If the seeds are large, the duiker spits them out. Smaller seeds such as those of Antrocaryon species may be ingested.[13] A 1989 study found that the soft seeds of plants such as Drypetes gossweileri, Staudtia gabonensis, Dacryoides buettneri, Ongokea gore, Santiria trimera, Annonidium mannii and Pentaclethra macrophylla are preferred.[17] There have been reports of the bay duiker preying on birds (without feeding on the legs and wings) and the embryo of unhatched eggs, carrion, remains of African porcupines and kusimanses, termites, beetles and ants.[7][13] Dog food may serve as supplement for captive individuals.[18]
Females may conceive by the age of eighteen months. Breeding occurs throughout the year, and no clear peaks are known.[13] A study in Gabon recorded birth peaks before or during maximum abundance of fruits.[19] In central Africa, births peak in January and February.[8] Oestrus lasts for just eighteen hours.[13] The rutting male pursues a female in oestrus continuously. The male might be humming and may move its foreleg outward. If receptive, the female will allow the male to mount by shifting her tail to a side.[13]
Gestation lasts for about 240 days, following which generally a single offspring is born. The infant weighs nearly 1,600–1,690 grams (56–60 oz), and its coat is dark reddish-brown. The brighter reddish-brown to chestnut color develops by five to six months. For the first few weeks after its birth, the infant is kept concealed in dense vegetation when the mother is away. The offspring can start taking solid food within a few weeks. Weaning occurs at around three-and-a-half months. The lifespan of the bay duiker averages 17 to 18 years.[8][13]
The bay duiker prefers old-growth or primary forests.[14] Home ranges of females are around 0.2–0.4 square kilometres (0.077–0.154 sq mi) large, and those of males are twice the size of those of females.[8] This duiker formerly occurred in the lowland forested areas (warm, moist rainforests) of Guinea. Nowadays, the bay duiker can be found in moist forested islands and riparian forests in the savannas of Guinea and northeastern Sudan.[14] The bay duiker is native to several countries in western and southern Africa: Angola, Cameroon, Central African Republic, The Democratic Republic of the Congo, Côte d'Ivoire, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Liberia, Nigeria, Sierra Leone and Togo. It is feared to be extinct in Uganda.[1]
The bay duiker has been historically overhunted across its range for bushmeat. A 2007 study of the extinction of the bay duiker in the Ipassa Makokou Biosphere Reserve (Gabon) held overhunting responsible for the elimination of the species from the reserve.[20] The survival of the bay duiker is also threatened by human settlement and agricultural expansion due to this duiker's preference for old-growth forests, and habitat degradation.[1][14]
The habitat of the bay duiker has depleted to a large extent due to deforestation.[14] The bay duiker, unlike the other duiker species, is still found in significant numbers,[14] and is classified as Near Threatened by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN).[1] The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) enlists the species in Appendix II.[3] In 1999, Rod East of the IUCN SSC Antelope Specialist Group estimated the total population at 725,000.[1] The most significant population occurs only in the Taï National Park (Côte d'Ivoire).[14] Protected areas where bay duikers occur include: Sapo National Park (Liberia); Kakum National Park (Ghana); Campo Ma'an National Park, Dja Faunal Reserve and Lobéké National Park (Cameroon); Dzanga-Sangha Special Reserve and Bangassou (Central African Republic); Monte Alén National Park (Equatorial Guinea); Lopé National Park and Minkébé National Park (Gabon); Odzala National Park and Nouabalé-Ndoki National Park (Congo-Brazzaville); Ituri Rainforest, Kahuzi-Biéga, Maiko and Salonga National Parks (Congo-Kinshasa).[1]

Mustaselkäsukeltaja-antilooppi (Cephalophus dorsalis) on Afrikassa elävä onttosarvisten heimoon kuuluva sorkkaeläin. Se elää metsissä ja liikkuu öisin. Nisäkäsnimistötoimikunnan ehdotus lajin uudeksi suomenkieliseksi nimeksi oli "mustaselkäpuikkija".[3]
Mustaselkäsukeltaja-antiloopin ruumiin pituus on 70–100 senttiä, säkäkorkeus 40–55 senttiä ja hännän pituus on 8–15 senttiä.[4] Paino on 15–24 kiloa. Laji on melko raskasrakenteinen.[5] Karkeakarvaisen turkin pääväri on yleensä punaruskea tai kellertävänruskea. Jalkojen alaosat ovat mustat tai tummanruskeat.[4][5] Selkää pitkin kulkee myös päästä häntään ulottuva lajille ominainen musta juova. Juova on keskimäärin 5–7 senttiä leveä, ja se paksunee takaruumiin kohdalla.[4] Myös vatsan keskellä voi olla tumma juova.[5] Häntä on päältä musta, mutta tuuhea alapuoli on valkoinen. Poikaset ovat syntyessään suklaanruskeita. Ne saavat selkäjuovan vasta neljän kuukauden ikäisinä. Aikuisen värityksen ne saavat noin vuoden vanhoina. Mustaselkäsukeltaja-antiloopilla on suippeneva pää ja voimakkaat poskilihakset.[4] Silmien alla on suuret naamarauhaset. Mustaselkäsukeltaja-antiloopin pää on leveämpi ja litteämpi kuin muilla sukeltaja-antiloopeilla. Sen kuono on myös lyhyt, ja silmät ovat suhteellisen korkealla, mikä on seurausta lajin suurista poskilihaksista, jotka mahdollistavat tehokkaan pureskelun.[5] Molemmilla sukupuolilla 5,5–10,5 senttiä pitkät, sileät, lähes suorat ja kiilanmuotoiset sarvet. Ne ovat verraten pitkät muiden sukeltaja-antilooppilajien sarviin verrattuna.[4]
Mustaselkä-sukeltaja-antilooppia tavataan Keski- ja Länsi-Afrikassa. Se levinneisyysalue ulottuu Guinea-Bissausta Ruwenzorivuorille, Ison hautavajoaman länsihaaraan ja Tanganjikajärvelle. Etelässä sen levinneisyys ulottuu Angolan koillisosiin saakka. Laji on ilmeisesti hävinnyt Ugandasta. Kannan kooksi arvioitiin vuonna 1999 olevan 725 000 yksilöä. Mustaselkäsukeltaja-antilooppien määrä on laskussa elinympäristöjen vähenemisen ja liiallisen metsästyksen vuoksi, ja se on määritelty silmälläpidettäväksi lajiksi. Sitä tavataan useilla suojelualueilla.[1] Kannan tiheys on melko alhainen. 12–20 hehtaarin laajuista metsää asuttaa keskimäärin 2–3 mustaselkäsukeltaja-antilooppia.[4]
Lajin pääasiallista elinympäristöä ovat alavien maiden sademetsät, erityisesti koskemattomat metsäalueet. Metsien lisäksi lajia tavataan myös maatalousalueiden pensaikoissa ja vanhentuneissa uudismetsissä sekä alueilla, joilla metsä ja savanni vuorottelevat.[1][5]
Mustaselkäsukeltaja-antilooppi elää yksin tai pareittain. Se liikkuu vain yöllä ja kulkee enimmäkseen vakituisesti käyttämiään polkuja pitkin. Polut kulkevat usein niin tiheän kasvillisuuden läpi, että ne näyttävät enemmän tunneleilta kuin poluilta.[4] Päivällä mustaselkäsukeltaja-antilooppi lepää yleensä ontossa puussa, kaatuneen puunrungon alla tai tiheän kasvillisuuden seassa.[5]
Tärkeimmät lajia saalistavat pedot ihmisen lisäksi ovat leopardi, pienet kissaeläimet, sivettieläimet, kotkat, suuret pöllöt, pytonit, krokotiilit ja varaanit.[4]
Vaikka mustaselkäsukeltaja-antilooppi on pääosin kasvinsyöjä, sen tiedetään tappavan ja syövän myös pikkueläimiä, etenkin pikkulintuja. Ravinto koostuu suurimmaksi osaksi hedelmistä, kuten villeistä mangoista ja leipäpuun hedelmistä.[5] Se syö myös lehtiä, versoja, silmuja, ruohoja, munia ja satunnaisesti raatoja.[4]
Mustaselkäsukeltaja-antiloopin kantoajan arvellaan kestävän noin 8,5–9 kuukautta. Naaras synnyttää yhden, harvoin kaksi vasaa.[4] Vasa pysyttelee ensimmäiset elinviikkonsa kasvillisuuden kätköissä ja viettää emonsa kanssa hyvin vähän aikaa. Emo imettää sitä viiden kuukauden ajan.[5] Mustaselkäsukeltaja-antilooppinaaraasta tulee sukukypsä 9–12 kuukauden ja uroksesta 12–18 kuukauden ikäisenä. Elinikä voi olla jopa 10–12 vuotta.[4]

Il cefalofo baio (Cephalophus dorsalis Gray, 1846), noto anche come cefalofo dal dorso nero, è una specie di cefalofo originaria delle foreste dell'Africa occidentale e centrale. Così come altri suoi simili, questa piccola e timida antilope, seppure faccia del suo meglio per evitare l'uomo, è molto minacciata dall'insostenibile commercio del cosiddetto bushmeat. Il nome afrikaans duiker, con cui vengono indicati i cefalofi, significa «tuffatore» e si riferisce all'abitudine propria di questi animali di tuffarsi nel fitto della vegetazione se disturbati[3].
Attualmente, gli studiosi riconoscono due sottospecie di cefalofo baio[1]:
Lungo 70-100 cm e pesante 15-24 kg, il cefalofo baio ha una costituzione piuttosto robusta, con un mantello di colore rosso o marrone-giallastro spruzzato di bianco. Lungo il dorso, dal naso alla radice della coda, corre una linea scura, e talvolta sul ventre è presente un'altra linea mediana dello stesso colore[4][5][6]. Le brevi zampe anteriori e le lunghe zampe posteriori sono di colore nero o marrone scuro[6]. La testa, più larga e appiattita di quella di altri cefalofi, presenta muso breve e occhi situati piuttosto in alto. Quest'ultima peculiarità è dovuta a un ingrossamento dei muscoli delle guance, come adattamento ad un'azione masticatoria più efficiente[4]. Il cefalofo baio possiede corna coniche, molto brevi, e grandi ghiandole odorifere poste sotto agli occhi, che si pensa vengano utilizzate per marcare il territorio[6].
Il cefalofo baio vive nella cintura di foreste equatoriali di pianura che cinge l'Africa, dal Senegal al Lago Tanganica[4].
Generalmente abita nelle foreste pluviali, dove può trovare riparo nelle cavità degli alberi, sotto tronchi caduti e nel fitto della boscaglia[4]. Sembra avere una particolare preferenza per le foreste pluviali primarie, e in apparenza è più comune nelle aree dove la foresta non è mai stata abbattuta[6].
I cefalofi bai sono animali notturni[6] che trascorrono le ore diurne nascosti tra la fitta vegetazione, nelle cavità degli alberi o sotto tronchi caduti[4], il che fa di loro animali particolarmente difficili da studiare[3]. Si nutrono prevalentemente di frutta[7], come manghi selvatici e frutti del pane africani[4], e per questo motivo giocano un ruolo importante nella dispersione dei semi degli alberi della foresta[8]. Brucano frequentemente anche foglie[7] e, stranamente, è noto che all'occasione queste timide antilopi seguano, uccidano e mangino uccelli[4].
I cefalofi, così come evitano l'uomo, cercano generalmente di evitarsi anche tra loro. La loro densità di popolazione è molto bassa[4], e generalmente vivono da soli, sebbene talvolta vengano visti in coppia[3], e si ritiene siano monogami[3]. La femmina partorisce solamente un unico piccolo; questo resta nascosto tra la vegetazione per le prime settimane di vita e trascorre pochissimo tempo con la madre[3]. I cefalofi bai vengono svezzati a cinque mesi di età, raggiungono la maturità sessuale a circa un anno e possono vivere fino a 10-12 anni[9].
Il cefalofo baio occupa un areale molto vasto, ma la sua popolarità presso i cacciatori e i commercianti di bushmeat lo ha spinto verso il declino in molti Paesi dell'Africa occidentale. Attualmente è divenuto molto raro in Nigeria e Sierra Leone, mentre in Uganda è scomparso del tutto[4]. I cefalofi sono prede facili da abbattere sia con armi da fuoco che con lacci, si possono facilmente trasportare a piedi, e da essi si ricava abbastanza carne da renderne proficua la cattura: tutti questi fattori ne fanno uno dei bersagli principali della caccia sia di sussistenza che commerciale[8]. Sfortunatamente, quasi ovunque la caccia data a questi animali è divenuta insostenibile con la loro sopravvivenza[8]. Inoltre, la predilezione del cefalofo baio per le foreste indisturbate lo rende vulnerabile al degrado dell'habitat, provocato da attività umane come l'agricoltura. In Togo, ad esempio, la popolazione di questa specie sta diminuendo sempre più a causa della distruzione dell'habitat e della caccia[6].
Il cefalofo baio (Cephalophus dorsalis Gray, 1846), noto anche come cefalofo dal dorso nero, è una specie di cefalofo originaria delle foreste dell'Africa occidentale e centrale. Così come altri suoi simili, questa piccola e timida antilope, seppure faccia del suo meglio per evitare l'uomo, è molto minacciata dall'insostenibile commercio del cosiddetto bushmeat.
