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.

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!

A great app
Enjoying it immensely and finding it useful too. Recording the different birds and counting them is showing me how the present climate is affecting them all. I've trebled the numbers by planting native hedging. A great app.

Just what birding needs
We need more fun in birding, for years it has had a reputation for being up tight and stuffy and only perused by retirees and anoraks. Birda helps change that perception and firmly brings birding into the 21st century! Fun, interactive while still contributing to science and conservation. If you aren’t on it, why not??

The best bird logging app
Birda is honestly the best bird logging app I have seen. I love all the features it has from being able to do a session and log all the birds you see in one sitting, to being able to connect with other birders from all over the globe!
