The scarlet myzomela (''Myzomela sanguinolenta'') also known as crimson honeyeater, scarlet honeyeater, sanguineous honeyeater or, colloquially, bloodbird, is a small passerine bird of the honeyeater family Meliphagidae native to the east coast of Australia, Indonesia and New Caledonia. It is the smallest honeyeater in Australia. The male is a striking bright red with black wings; the female is entirely brown. ==Taxonomy== It was originally described as ''Certhia sanguinolenta'' by ornithologist John Latham in 1802.〔Latham, J. (1802). ''Supplementum Indicis Ornithologici, sive Systematis Ornithologiae.'' London: G. Leigh, J. & S. Sotheby 74 pp. ()〕 It is a member of the small genus ''Myzomela'' with two other red species, the red-headed myzomela of northern Australia and the cardinal myzomela of Vanuatu, as well as the dusky myzomela. It belongs to the honeyeater family Meliphagidae. More recently, DNA analysis has shown honeyeaters to be related to the Pardalotidae, and the Petroicidae (Australian robins) in a large corvid superfamily; some researchers considering all these families in a broadly defined Corvidae.
