Bismarck Black Myzomela

Myzomela pammelaena

The Bismarck black myzomela, also known as the ebony myzomela, is a diminutive yet striking member of the honeyeater family, Meliphagidae. This avian species is adorned with a sleek, glossy plumage that one might say absorbs the light, giving it a rather enchanting appearance.

Identification Tips

When endeavoring to identify the Bismarck black myzomela, one should look for its predominantly black plumage, which can appear almost liquid in its sheen. The bird's size is relatively small, characteristic of the Myzomela genus to which it belongs.

Habitat

The natural habitat of this species is the subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests. These lush environments provide the Bismarck black myzomela with ample foraging opportunities and nesting sites.

Distribution

This bird is native to the Admiralty and St Matthias islands, which are part of the Bismarck Archipelago in Papua New Guinea. Here, it flits through the forest canopy, a shadow amongst the verdant foliage.

Conservation status

The Bismarck black myzomela is currently classified as Least Concern by the IUCN Red List. This suggests that, for now, the species is not facing any immediate threats to its survival on a global scale.

Clean and easy to use
Really enjoying this app, it's clean and easy to use. I love the ease of being able to add those one-off birds without starting a whole checklist. I also like the social aspect, like the parts of my Facebook I like, without the ads and junk, just birds. Can't wait to see it become more populated.

Birda is an excellent platform to share your love of Birding and is a great tool of encouragement for a Birding Beginner like me. Birda has a very kind and supportive community of Birding enthusiasts. For me BIRDA is not only a BIRDING but also a WELLBEING App.

Easy to use and accurate
Love this app. It is easy to use and accurate, Their backup communication is really good. I noted a missing species. All through the process, I was kept informed about the progress in correcting the information. I now have the corrected, updated version. 😁 Thanks!
