Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox
The cardinal myzomela (Myzomela cardinalis) is a species of bird in the honeyeater family Meliphagidae. It is named for the scarlet color of the male. It is found in American Samoa, New Caledonia, Samoa, Solomon Islands, and Vanuatu, as well as some islands in Micronesia such as Yap. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest and subtropical or tropical mangrove forest.[1] It frequents areas with flowers, such as gardens. This is a small, active bird, measuring about Шаблон:Convert from bill to tail.[2] Males are red and black in coloration, females are grayish-olive, sometimes with a red cap or red head. Its long, curved bill is especially adapted for reaching into flowers for nectar.[3] Cardinal myzomela populations have vanished from the island of Guam since the invasion of the brown tree snake.[4]
Taxonomy
The cardinal myzomela was formally described in 1788 by the German naturalist Johann Friedrich Gmelin in his revised and expanded edition of Carl Linnaeus's Systema Naturae. He placed it with the treecreepers in the genus Certhia and coined the binomial name Certhia cardinalis.[5][6] Gmelin based his description on the "cardinal creeper" that had been described and illustrated in 1782 by the English ornithologist John Latham in his book A General Synopsis of Birds. Latham had access to a specimen in the Leverian Museum that had been brought to London from the island of Tanna in Vanuata in the South Pacific Ocean.[7] The cardinal myzomela is now one of 40 honeyeaters placed in the genus Myzomela that was introduced in 1827 by Nicholas Vigors and Thomas Horsfield.[8]
