Trichoglossus Haematodus Subsp
''Trichoglossus'' is a genus of lorikeet in the Psittaculidae or true parrot superfamily. The genus is distributed widely through Australia, Wallacea and Melanesia, with outliers in the Philippines and Micronesia. Members of the genus are characterised by barring, sometimes prominently, on the upper breast. Taxonomy The genus ''Trichoglossus'' was introduced in 1826 by the English naturalist James Francis Stephens. The name combines the Ancient Greek ''thrix'' meaning "hair" and ''glōssa'' meaning "tongue". The type species was subsequently designated as the coconut lorikeet. Following the publication of a molecular phylogenetic study of the lorikeets in 2020, three species were moved from ''Trichoglossus '' to the newly erected genus ''Saudareos''. These were the Mindanao lorikeet, the ornate lorikeet and the Sula lorikeet The Sula lorikeet (''Saudareos flavoviridis'') is a species of parrot in the family Psittaculidae.

Ornate Lorikeet
The ornate lorikeet (''Saudareos ornata''), sometimes named the ornate lory, is a species of parrot in the family Psittaculidae. It is endemic to the Sulawesi archipelago in Indonesia.Coates, B. J., & K. D. Bishop (1997). ''A Guide to the Birds of Wallacea.'' Dove Publications Pty. Ltd. It is found in forest, woodland, mangrove and plantations, and is locally common. Taxonomy The ornate lorikeet was formally described by the Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus in 1758 in the tenth edition of his ''Systema Naturae'' under the binomial name ''Psittacus ornatus''. Linnaeus based his description of the "Lory Parrakeet" that had been described and illustrated in 1751 by George Edwards in his "A Natural History of Uncommon Birds". Linnaeus mistakenly specified the location as "America" although Edwards had stated that the bird had come from the " East Indies" (actually the Indonesian island of Sulawesi). The ornate lorikeet was formerly placed in the genus '' Trichoglossus'' b ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Coconut Lorikeet
The coconut lorikeet (''Trichoglossus haematodus''), also known as the green-naped lorikeet, is a parrot in the family Psittaculidae. Seven species of lorikeets now recognised were once lumped together under ''Trichoglossus haematodus''. Taxonomy In 1758, English naturalist George Edwards described this species as the red-breasted parrakeet in his work ''Gleanings of Natural History''. He had obtained a stuffed specimen from a China warehouse in London, that had come from the East Indies. "It is a parrakeet, equal to any I have seen for beauty; and I believe hath never been described or figured until now." In 1760 the French zoologist Mathurin Jacques Brisson included a description of the coconut lorikeet in his ''Ornithologie'' based on a specimen collected on the island of Ambon in Indonesia. He used the French name ''La perruche variée d'Amboine'' and the Latin name ''Psittaca amboinensis varia''. The two stars (**) at the start of the section indicates that Brisson based his ...

Scaly-breasted Lorikeet
The scaly-breasted lorikeet (''Trichoglossus chlorolepidotus'') is an Australian lorikeet found in woodland in eastern Australia. The common name aptly describes this bird, which has yellow breast feathers broadly edged with green that look like scales.

Other names this bird is known by include the gold and green lorikeet, greenie, green lorikeet, green and yellow lorikeet, green keet, green parrot, green leek, and green leaf. It is often colloquially referred to as a "scaly". Its specific epithet is derived from the Ancient Greek root ''khlōros'' 'green, yellow', and ''lepidōtos'' 'scaly'.

Federated States Of Micronesia
The Federated States of Micronesia (; abbreviated FSM) is an island country in Oceania. It consists of four states from west to east, Yap, Chuuk, Pohnpei and Kosraethat are spread across the western Pacific. Together, the states comprise around 607 islands (a combined land area of approximately ) that cover a longitudinal distance of almost just north of the equator. They lie northeast of Indonesia and Papua New Guinea, south of Guam and the Marianas, west of Nauru and the Marshall Islands, east of Palau and the Philippines, about north of eastern Australia, 3,400 km (2,133 mi) southeast of Japan, and some southwest of the main islands of the Hawaiian Islands. While the FSM's total land area is quite small, the country's waters occupy more than of the Pacific Ocean, giving the country the 14th-largest exclusive economic zone in the world. The sovereign island nation's capital is Palikir, located on Pohnpei Island, while the largest city is Weno ...
