Hi Gary & Greg,

Terraereginae is correct. Aerodramus terrareginae is an incorrect  
spelling that pops up regularly. It should be Aerodramus terraereginae.
Cheers,

Carl Clifford

Hi Gary,

My understanding of the meaning of terraereginae is terrae = land     
reginae = queen  = Queensland.  There is a frog, the Northern Banjo  
Frog with the name Limnodynastes terraereginae.  Note the extra 'e' in  
'reginae'.
I had great views and obtained some great close up photos of the  
Double-eyed Fig-parrot feeding in a fruiting Cluster Fig at Centenary  
Lakes in Cairns last September.
