Bueno, pues no conocía el asunto así que lo corrijo. Muchas gracias por tus informaciones. Un saludo.
Charles Darwin Foundation for the Galapagos
Durante la ultima +/- decada estudiaron la genetica del lobo marino galapagueño y decidieron que hay que clasificarlo no solo como subespecie, sino como especie separada: "Recent genetic data support the classification as a separate species (Wolf et al. 2007)". Ver Datazone.darwinfoundation.org y articulos en wikipedia, etc. - Asi que el ID seria Zalophus wollebaeki, Lobo Marino de Galapagos - Galapagos Sea Lion. NB: Tambien existe una poblacion en la Isla de Plata.
