Genomic data from Little blue penguin ( Eudyptula minor minor ).
The New Zealand little blue penguin (also known as fairy penguin, blue penguin, little penguin and kororā in Māori) is one of the smallest penguins. It is found on the coastlines of New Zealand and the Chatham Islands. They have a slate-blue plumage. Recent genetic, morphological and behavioral rese...
