Maui nukupuʻu : ウィキペディア英語版 | Maui nukupuʻu
The Maui nukupuu (''Hemignathus affinis'') is a species of nukupu‘u that was endemic to the island of Maui in the Hawaiian Islands. The small, five-inch-long bird lives only in eastern Maui, where it is dependent on high-elevation mesic and wet forests of ōhia lehua (''Metrosideros polymorpha'') and koa (''Acacia koa''). These two species of trees attract insects, causing the Maui nukupuu to have a higher chance of finding a meal near these trees. ==Appearance== The males are colored green on the back and head, and yellow on its face, neck, belly, and bottom. The females are completely olive green and are quieter than their male counterparts. Juveniles are gray and green. The bird's long bill is used to peck out insects in the tree's bark. The bill is an inch long and takes up to 1/3 or more of its entire length.
