Greater Akialoa

Print from Frohawk's Birds of Hawaii

Akialoa - Estrildidae Padda oryzivora

From various websites: believed to be extinct.

I have included two versions of the Akialoa from Frohawk (Greater and Lesser); Marian seems to have painted the first one (longer billed). There is a disconnect between the Latin names I have for the Akialoa and those on Frohawk's plates.

Marian Berger's paintings of the Akialoa can be found on my website at: 1985 Lithographs, 1990 Lithographs, 2010 Giclees, and the Marion Collection.
