The species is named after Soekarja Somadikarta, a prominent Indonesian ornithologist. Unlike most species in the genus it lacks a white-ring around the eye.Mochamad Indrawan, Pamela C. Rasmussen, and Sunarto (2008) "A New White-Eye (''Zosterops'') from the Togian Islands, Sulawesi, Indonesia" ''The Wilson Journal of Ornithology'' 120(1): 1-(abstract)/ref> The species is believed to be endangered, although it has not yet been assessed by the IUCN.

Tonkean Macaque
The Tonkean black macaque or Tonkean macaque (''Macaca tonkeana'') is a species of primate in the family Cercopithecidae. It is endemic to central Sulawesi and the nearby Togian Islands in Indonesia. It is threatened by habitat loss. Widespread mining in central Sulawesi is believed to exacerbating the problems of habitat loss.Syamsul Huda M.Suhari and Ruslan Sangadji,Mining, deforestation threaten endemic black macaque' ''The Jakarta Post'', 11 February 2014. Tonkean Macaques are rather ape-like in appearance, and males are slightly larger than females. A handful of matriarchs enforces a relatively fluid and lenient pecking order. Tonkean macaques take effort in maintaining harmony in the group and practice conflict resolution to a great degree. Despite being pacifists, matrilines remain rigid and unchanging, even if they're relaxed compared to other macaque species. However, this peacefulness does not extend to outside troops, and if two tonkean macaque troops cross paths, inte ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
