The short-tailed paradigalla (''Paradigalla brevicauda'') is a species of bird-of-paradise. Formerly presumed to have been monogamous, it is now considered to breed polygynously.〔Grzimek, Bernhard ''Grzimek's Animal Life Encyclopedia''. ISBN 0-7876-5362-4 Text accessed at (Answers.com ).〕 It inhabits the mountain forests of New Guinea. The diet consists mainly of fruits, seeds and insects. The short-tailed paradigalla is evaluated as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.〔 It is listed on Appendix II of CITES. ==Description==
The short-tailed paradigalla is medium-sized, approximately 23 cm long, stocky black plumaged with slender black bill and bright yellow and blue wattles in front of each eye. The sexes are almost similar in appearance: the female is smaller than the male with a duller plumage and smaller wattles. The short-tailed paradigalla is distinguished from its nearest relative, the long-tailed paradigalla, by its smaller size, shorter tail feathers and lack of red on the wattles.
