Poʻouli
The poo-uli (''Melamprosops phaeosoma''〔Etymology: "black-faced bird with brownish body". ''Melamprosops'', "black-faced", from Ancient Greek ''melas'' (μέλας) "black" + ''prosopo'' (πρόσωπο) "face". ''phaeosoma'', "brownish-bodied", from Ancient Greek ''phaios'' (φαιός) "brown-gray" + ''soma'' (σώμα) "body".〕), or black-faced honeycreeper, is a critically endangered and possibly extinct bird species that is endemic to the island of Maui in Hawaiʻi. It is considered to be a member of the Hawaiian honeycreepers, and is the only member of its genus ''Melamprosops''. ==Description== The poo-uli is brown above and grayish-white below, with a broad black mask extending behind the eye. Adults are silvery-gray above the mask, shading into brown at the crown, with a bold, pale patch just behind the mask. Juveniles are similar but buffier below with a smaller mask and without gray above. Most earlier published images of the poouli were of the juvenile plumage.
