Little cuckoo : ウィキペディア英語版 | Little cuckoo
The little cuckoo (''Coccycua minuta'') is a species of bird in the cuckoo family (Cuculidae) from South America and Panama. It was formerly placed in the genus ''Piaya'' but a monotypic genus ''Coccycua'' was once erected for it. This has been reinstated following the discovery that the closest living relatives of the little cuckoo are some species traditionally placed in ''Coccyzus'' or ''Micrococcyx'', rather than the other members of ''Piaya''.〔IUCN (2008)〕 ==Description== This species is about long and weighs . The adult is mainly chestnut brown, with a greyish lower belly, browner tail and white tips to the tail feathers. The bill is yellow, short, and decurved; the iris of the eyes is red. Immature birds are dark brown with a black bill and no white tail tips.〔〔 It is smaller and the throat is darker than in the squirrel cuckoo.〔 The little cuckoo makes harsh ''chek'' and ''kak'' calls.〔
