Genomic data from Fiordland-crested penguin ( Eudyptes pachyrhynchus ).
The Fiordland crested penguin (also known as Fiordland penguin, and in Māori it is known as Tawaki) is endemic only to the south-western coasts of New Zealand's South Island as well as on Stewart Island/Rakiura and nearby islands. It is a crested penguin closely related to the Snares crested pe...
