King of Saxony bird-of-paradise : ウィキペディア英語版 | King of Saxony bird-of-paradise
The King of Saxony bird-of-paradise (''Pteridophora alberti'') is a bird in the bird-of-paradise family (''Paradisaeidae''). It is the only member in the monotypic genus ''Pteridophora''. It is endemic to montane forest in New Guinea. ==Nomenclature== Adolf Bernard Meyer of the Dresden Museum described this species in the December 1894 bulletin of the British Ornithologist's Club.〔Papua New Guinea Birds of Paradise (1990). William S. Peckover〕 Both the common name "King of Saxony" and the scientific specific name "''alberti''" were given to honour to the then king of Saxony, Albert of Saxony, whose wife gave her name to the Queen Carola's parotia. The bird is sometimes referred to as "Kiss-a-ba" by the natives of Papua New Guinea and Western New Guinea, as a human interpretation of the male's loud call.
