🐾Common warthog
イボイノシシ属(Phacochoerus)は偶蹄目イノシシ科の属。サブサハラアフリカの開けた土地(乾燥地帯含む)に住むイノシシである。かつてはイボイノシシ(Phacochoerus aethiopicus)1種と考えられていたが、現在はCommon warthog(Phacochoerus africanus)とDesert warthog(Phacochoerus aethiopicus)とに分けられている。 剛毛に覆われているが、体と頭は、背中に沿った稜部と頬と尾の房に明らかに毛が生えている以外は、遠くから見ると無毛のように見える。顔の肉垂はオスに顕著である。発達した牙を持ち、オスでは25-64cmにも達する(メスの牙はオスより小さい)。主に植物食性だが、小動物を食べることもある。2種ともIUCNレッドリストでは低危険種として評価されているが、Desert warthog(Phacochoerus aethiopicus)の基亜種Cape warthog(P. a. aethiopicus)は1870年代に絶滅した。
