Is someone able to inform me (and perhaps also the list?) how
Callocephalon fimbriatum acquired its rather odd common name (I've been
asked the question by a non-birding acquaintance). I don't recall
ever having heard the origin of the name and can't find any reference to
it in any of the 5 field-guides, the first Atlas, the Readers' Digest or
HANZAB! Regards. Richard RICHARD NOWOTNY 8 Pier St Port Melbourne VIC AUSTRALIA 3207 (H) 61-3-9645.6870 (M) 0438 224456 |
