Arafura Shrikethrush
The Arafura shrikethrush (''Colluricincla megarhyncha'') is a species of bird in the family Pachycephalidae. Taxonomy and systematics This species was formerly considered a conspecific member of the little shrikethrush complex. Genetic investigations of New Guinea populations of the little shrikethrush indicated high levels of genetic divergence, suggesting it comprised more than one species. Subspecies Currently, three subspecies are recognized: * ''C. m. megarhyncha'' ( Quoy & Gaimard, 1832) ― found on Salawati and Misool (off northwestern New Guinea), Aru Islands (off southwestern New Guinea) and New Guinea * ''C. m. parvula'' Gould, 1845 ― originally described as a separate species. Found in north-eastern Western Australia and northern Northern Territory (Australia) * ''C. m. aruensis'' (Gray, GR, 1858) ― Aru Islands, Trans-Fly region of south New Guinea Distribution and habitat It is found in New Guinea and Australia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical ...

Birds By Common Name
Birds are a group of warm-blooded vertebrates constituting the class (biology), class Aves (), characterised by feathers, toothless beaked jaws, the Oviparity, laying of Eggshell, hard-shelled eggs, a high Metabolism, metabolic rate, a four-chambered heart, and a strong yet lightweight Bird skeleton, skeleton. Birds live worldwide and range in size from the bee hummingbird to the Common ostrich, ostrich. There are about ten thousand living species, more than half of which are passerine, or "perching" birds. Birds have whose development varies according to species; the only known groups without wings are the extinct moa and elephant birds. Wings, which are modified forelimbs, gave birds the ability to fly, although further evolution has led to the Flightless bird, loss of flight in some birds, including ratites, penguins, and diverse endemism, endemic island species. The digestive and respiratory systems of birds are also uniquely adapted for flight. Some bird species of a ...
