New bird species discovered in forests of Indonesia

印尼蘇拉威西發現新鳥種
A new bird species has been discovered in Indonesia, proving that there are still a few new things under the sun. The observation is even more surprising given the “new” species was first spotted in the forests of Sulawesi 15 years ago.
The [b]Sulawesi streaked flycatcher[/b], Muscicapa sodhil, lives in the forested lowlands of the island and joins a host of similar flycatchers in this ecological hotspot.
But there is no doubt this is a new species given its unique plumage, body structure song and genetics, according to the US and Indonesian scientists who describe the bird in the current edition of PLOS One.3551em012445
