Red-collared Myzomela

Myzomela rosenbergii

The Red-collared Myzomela, Myzomela rosenbergii, is a vibrant member of the Meliphagidae family, gracing the montane forests of New Guinea with its presence.

Identification Tips

This species can be recognized by its distinctive red collar, which provides a stark contrast to its otherwise subdued plumage.

Habitat

The Red-collared Myzomela thrives in the subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, a habitat that offers the seclusion and resources this bird requires.

Distribution

One can find this species in the verdant expanses of New Guinea, where it flits among the canopies.

Conservation status

The IUCN has classified the Red-collared Myzomela as Least Concern, indicating a stable population within its natural habitat.

Similar Species

The Long-billed Myzomela, M. longirostris, once considered conspecific with the Red-collared Myzomela, shares its range on Goodenough Island. However, in 2021, the IOC recognized it as a distinct species, highlighting the importance of subtle differences in morphology and distribution.

Learning Birding with Birda
I’m relatively new to birding as a hobby, and Birda is a great way to keep track off all the species I see. I’m still working on my ID skills, but the app is great for figuring out potential species, and the online community is so friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend Birda to both early and serious birders! 🐦

Great app
I use this app all the time as it’s quick and easy to log individual sightings or whole birding sessions. It’s an excellent way to meet new people and the forum is full of really friendly people. The challenges are a great way to get involved and learn more about birds. Cannot recommend it enough!
