The blue-eared lory (''Eos semilarvata'') (also known as Ceram lory, half-masked lory or Seram lory) is a parrot found only on the island of Seram in Malaku province, Indonesia. The blue-eared lory is the smallest ''Eos'' at 24 cm long. It has a red body with blue cheeks, chin, and ear-coverts, purple-blue abdomen and undertail coverts, and black streaked wings. The adult has an orange beak with juvenile's pink. The blue-eared lory is sometimes found in the altitude as low as 800m, but primarily from 1600-2400m. It feeds on flowering trees, including tree-heathers above the tree-line. The flocks are small. A common species in its limited range, the blue-eared lory is evaluated as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. ==References== *Juniper & Parr (1998) ''Parrots: A Guide to Parrots of the World''; ISBN 0-300-07453-0. *(【引用サイトリンク】url = http://www.birdlife.org/datazone/species/index.html?action=SpcHTMDetails.asp&sid=1344&m=0 ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Blue-eared lory」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
