Parotia berlepschi (Bronze Parotia)

Wikipedia Abstract

The bronze parotia (Parotia berlepschi), also known as the Foja parotia, Berlepsch's parotia or Berlepsch's six-wired bird-of-paradise, is a bird-of-paradise. It resembles and is often considered to be a subspecies of the Queen Carola's parotia, but it differs from the latter by having more heavily bronzed plumage and no eye ring. The specific name commemorates a 19th-century German ornithologist Hans von Berlepsch.
