California, Galapagos and Japanese sea lion
Sharon R. Melin, Fritz Trillmich y David Aurioles-Gamboa
The California sea lion (Zalophus californianus) and Galapagos sea lion (Z. wollebaeki) are closely related species comprising the genus Zalophus (Fig. 1). The genus also includes the now extinct Japanese sea lion (Z. japonicus); little is known about the life history or ecology of this species. Zalophus is derived from the Greek word lophos meaning “crest.” A local Spanish name of the Galapagos sea lion is “Lobo marino,” meaning sea wolf.
