Manucodia comrii

Manucodes are birds-of-paradise in the genus Manucodia that are medium-sized with black-glossed purple and green plumages.

The members of this genus are distributed in the lowland forests of New Guinea and nearby islands. They are monogamous and sexually monomorphic,[2] in contrast to most birds-of-paradise.

The genus was introduced by the Dutch naturalist Pieter Boddaert in 1783 for a single species, the crinkle-collared manucode (Manucodia chalybatus). This is now the type species.[3][4] The genus name is a contracted form of Manucodiata that had been used in 1760 by the French zoologist Mathurin Jacques Brisson for a group of birds-of-paradise.[5][6] The word is derived from the Old Javanese Manuk meaning "birds" and dewata meaning "of the gods".[6]

The genus contains five species.[7]

Image	Common Name	Scientific name	Distribution

	Tagula manucode	Manucodia alter	Tagula Island of the Louisiade Archipelago
	Jobi manucode	Manucodia jobiensis	lowland forests of Jobi Island and northern New Guinea
	Crinkle-collared manucode	Manucodia chalybatus	New Guinea and Misool Island of West Papua.
	Curl-crested manucode	Manucodia comrii	Papua New Guinea,
