鷹嘴珍龜

鷹嘴珍龜（學名：Homopus areolatus）J. Obst, K. Richter, and U. Jacob, The Completely Illustrated Atlas of Reptiles and Amphibians for the Terrarium, TFH Publications, 1988.F. Slavens and K. Slavens, Reptiles and Amphibians in Captivity – Breeding, Longevity and Inventory, 1991.The Herpetology Sourcebook, Reptile & Amphibian Magazine, 1996-1997.是珍龜屬下的一個種。

鷹嘴珍龜原生於南非開普省，前足只有四個腳趾，雄性的鼻部在繁殖季節會變成紅色或橘色。因為個頭很小所以極易被捕食，同時由於棲息地破壞及偷獵的緣故，其數量在不斷減少。Membres.multimania.fr  (Retrieved March 17, 2010).
