ʻO ka nahesa Dekeus (Storeria dekayi), a i ʻole ka nahesa ʻeleʻele, pili i ke kauoha scaly.
Ka wehewehe o ka helehelena o ka nahesa Dekey.
ʻO ka nahesa ʻeleʻele kahi kolo kolo liʻiliʻi i liʻiliʻi iki i ka 15 ʻīniha ka lōʻihi. Nā nui o ke kino mai 23.0 a 52.7 cm, ʻoi aku ka nui o nā wahine. Nui nā maka o ke kino a me nā unahi paʻa keeled. ʻO ke kala o ka integument, ma ke ʻano he kaulike, hina hina me kahi kaula māmā ma ke kua, e pili ana ma nā ʻaoʻao me nā kiko ʻeleʻele. Keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo ka ʻōpū. Holo nā lālani 17 i ka waena o ke kua. Māhele ʻia ka pā aniani.
ʻIke like ke kāne a me ka wahine, akā he lōʻihi ka huelo o ke kāne. Aia kekahi mau ʻāpana ʻē aʻe o Storeria dekayi i ʻano ʻokoʻa iki, akā ʻaʻohe hōʻike ʻike kikokiko o kekahi ʻano kau i nā kala. Liʻiliʻi loa nā moʻo ʻōpio Dekeus, 1/2 wale nō ʻīniha ka lōʻihi. ʻEleʻele a ʻeleʻele hina hina kekahi kanaka. ʻO kahi hiʻohiʻona hiʻohiʻona o nā moʻo ʻōpiopio nā ʻōmaʻomaʻo keʻokeʻo hina keʻokeʻo a puni ka ʻāʻī. I kēia makahiki, kū lākou i waho mai nā ʻano ʻē aʻe me nā unahi keeled.
ʻO ka hoʻolaha ʻana o ka nahesa Dekeus.
Ua palahalaha ka nahesa Dekeus ma ʻAmelika Hema. ʻIke ʻia kēia ʻano ma South Maine, South Quebec, South Ontario, Michigan, Minnesota a me ka hikina hikina o South Dakota, South Florida. Noho ia ma kahakai o ke Kai Kūʻono ʻo Mekiko, ma ka Hikina a me Mekiko ʻo Mexico ma Veracruz a me Oaxaca a me Chiapas ma Honduras. Nā lāhui ma ka hema o Kanada. Hoʻolahalaha ʻia ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa hikina o nā Pōhaku Pōhaku a ma ka ʻākau o Mekiko.
ʻO ka nohona o ka nahesa Dekeus.
Nui nā moʻo o Dekeus i ko lākou wahi noho. ʻO ke kumu no ka liʻiliʻi o kēia mau mea kolo i ka nui a makemake ākea no nā ʻano biotopes. Loaʻa lākou ma kahi o nā ʻano nohona ʻāina a me nā ʻāina wai i kā lākou pae, e like me nā kūlanakauhale. Noho lākou i nā ulu lāʻau deciduous tropical. Noho mau lākou i nā wahi pulu, ʻaʻole naʻe pili i nā ʻano i pili i nā kino wai.
ʻIke pinepine nā nahesa ʻo Dekey ma waena o nā ʻōpala, i waena o nā wai hyacinths o Florida, lalo o ka honua a i ʻole ma lalo o nā hale a me nā kūkulu. Hūnā mau nā nahesa Brown ma waena o nā pōhaku ma ka nāhelehele a ma nā kūlanakauhale nui. Noho kēia mau moʻo i ka hapa nui o ko lākou ola ma lalo o ka honua, akā i ka wā ua nui, hele lākou i waho i kahi ākea. Hana ʻia kēia ma ʻOkakopa - Nowemapa a me ka hopena o Malaki - ʻApelila, ke neʻe nā mea kolo mai nā pūnaewele hibernation. I kekahi manawa hibernate nā nahesa ʻo Dekeus me nā ʻano ʻē aʻe, ka nahesa ʻulaʻula-bellied a me ka nahesa ʻōmaʻomaʻo mālie.
ʻO ka hana hou ʻana i ka nahesa Dekeus.
ʻO nā moʻo o Dekeus nā mea kolo nui. ʻO kēia ʻano viviparous, ulu nā embryos i ke kino o ka makuahine. Hānau ka wahine i nā nahesa ʻōpio he 12 - 20. Kū kēia i ka hapa lua o ke kauwela, ma ka hopena o Iulai - i ka mua o ʻAukake. ʻAʻole ʻike nā poʻe hānau hou i ka mālama makua ʻana mai nā mākua a waiho ʻia iā lākou iho. Akā i kekahi manawa aia nā nahesa ʻōpiopio ʻeleʻele i ko lākou mau mākua no kekahi manawa.
Hiki i nā nahesa ʻōpio ʻōpio i ka moekolohe ma ka hopena o ke kauwela ʻelua, maʻamau i kēia manawa ua aneane pālua ka lōʻihi o ko lākou kino.
ʻAʻoleʻike iki ʻia e pili ana i ke ola o nā nahesa ʻeleʻele i ka nāhelehele, akā i ka hoʻopaʻa pio ʻana e ola kekahi mau kānaka a hiki i 7 mau makahiki. Malia paha no ka manawa like lākou e noho nei i ko lākou kūlohelohe, akā he nui nā ʻenemi o nā Deceus, no laila hapa wale nō o nā keiki i hiki i ke oʻo.
Nā hiʻohiʻona o ka hana a ka nahesa Dekey.
I ka wā hānau, loaʻa nā moʻo o Dekey i kekahi ma ke ala o nā pheromones a ka wahine e hūnā ai. Na ka pilau, hoʻoholo ke kāne i ke alo o ka hoa. Ma waho o ka wā hānau, noho kaʻawale nā mea kolo.
ʻO nā moʻo nahesa Brown e kamaʻilio pū kekahi me kekahi ma o ka paʻi a me ka pilau. Hoʻohana lākou i kā lākou mau alelo forked e kiʻi i nā kemika mai ka lewa, a kahi lālā kūikawā i ka larynx decode i kēia mau hōʻailona kemika. No laila, ʻimi nā nahesa eleele i ka hapanui o ka honua a i ka pō, hoʻohana wale paha lākou i ko lākou ala o ka ʻaʻala e loaʻa ai ka mea pio. ʻIke kēia ʻano reptile i ka haʻalulu a maikaʻi ke nānā aku. Hoʻomaʻamaʻa mau ʻia nā nahesa Brown e nā rana a me nā toads, nā moʻo nui, nā ʻaka, nā lawaiʻa, nā ʻūlū, kekahi ʻano manu, nā holoholona laka a me nā wea.
Ke hoʻoweliweli i nā moʻo a Dekey, hoʻomāhuahua lākou i ko lākou mau kino e kū i ka nui, lawe i kahi kūlana kolohe, a hoʻokuʻu i kahi wai ʻaʻala ʻaʻala mai kā lākou cloaca.
ʻO ka meaʻai a ka nahesa Dekey.
ʻAi nui nā nahesa Brown i nā ʻenehu, slug, a me nā nīnū. ʻAi lākou i nā salamanders liʻiliʻi, nā ʻōpū a me nā nalo ʻili palupalu.
Aia nā moʻo o Dekey i nā niho a me nā aʻa ʻae e hiki ai iā lākou ke huki i ke kino palupalu o ke kuhuna mai ka pūpū a ʻai.
ʻO ke kaiaolaola o ka nahesa Dekeus.
Kōkua nā nahesa Brown i ka mālama ʻana i ka heluna o nā kuhū, nā slug e hōʻino loa i nā mea kanu a luku iā lākou. Ma ka huli, hānai nā mea ʻai he nui iā lākou. No laila, he mea nui nā nāhesa a Dekey nā loulou meaʻai i ke kaiaola.
He manaʻo no ke kanaka.
Hiki ke pōmaikaʻi kēia mau moʻo liʻiliʻi ma ke kaohi ʻana i ka helu o nā slug weliweli e hōʻino i nā lau o nā mea kanu i mahi ʻia.
Ke kūlana mālama o ka nahesa Dekeus.
Hōʻike ʻia ka moʻo Dekeus e kahi nui loa o nā kānaka e hana i nā subpopulation. ʻAʻole ʻike ʻia ka heluna nui o nā mea kolo kolo makua, akā kanalua ʻole ma kahi o 100,000. Hoʻokaʻawale ʻia kēia ʻano nāhesa (ma kahi o nā haneli heka) i nā wahi he nui. ʻO ka mahele, ka wahi i noho ʻia e ka ʻāina, ka helu o nā subpopulation, a me nā kānaka.
ʻO nā hōʻailona i helu ʻia e hiki ai ke hoʻokau i ka nahesa Dekeus i kahi laha ʻaʻohe kumu e hopohopo ai. I kēia manawa, ʻaʻole hiki i nā helu kope ke hōʻole wikiwiki e lawa pono nā nahesa a Dekeus no ke komo ʻana i ka mahele koʻikoʻi ʻoi aku. ʻAʻohe mea hoʻoweliweli koʻikoʻi i kēia ʻano. Akā, e like me nā laha maʻamau, pili ka nahesa o Dekea e ka haumia a me ka luku ʻia o nā wahi kaiāulu a me nā kaona. ʻAʻole ʻike ʻia nā hana e hana ʻia e hōʻoia i ka hiki i nā lehulehu o nā nahesa eleele i ka wā e hiki mai ana. ʻAe kēia ʻano moʻo o ka nahesa i kahi pae kiʻekiʻe o ka hoʻoneʻe noho ʻana, akā he aha nā hopena e hiki mai ana ma kēia mua aku hiki ke manaʻo ʻia.
