<birdfyi-bird slug="eulipoa-wallacei"></birdfyi-bird>के बारे में
A small megapode (~500 g) of family Megapodiidae, endemic to the Maluku Islands of eastern Indonesia. Inhabits coastal forests and beach-forest edges where volcanic or solar-heated sand provides incubation heat for eggs. Feeds on seeds, fallen fruits, and invertebrates. Vulnerable due to intensive egg collection, coastal habitat loss, and limited island range.
