Acridotheres

Ventral abdominal hernia in a common myna (Acridotheres tristis).

Anonymous 2011 "Acridotheres tristis (bird)." IUCN/SSC Invasive Species Specialist Group (ISSG).

These are: House Sparrow (Passer domesticus), House Crow (Corvus splendens) Indian Peafowl (Pavo cristatus), Rock Pigeon (Columba livia) Laughing Dove (Streptopelia senegalensis), Rose-ringed Parakeet (Psittacula krameri), Asian Koel (Eudynamys scolopacea), Indian Pond Heron (Ardeola grayii), Common Myna (Acridotheres tristis) and Dusky Crag-Martins.

In New Zealand, Stewart and Craig (1989) found that (likewise introduced) European blackbirds (Turdus merula, Turdidae) and Indian mynas (Acridotheres tristis, Sturnidae) are the most efficient cross pollinators.

A fall resulting in a midline tear and true hernia also has been reported previously in a common myna (Acridotheres tristis).

The most dominant species were house crow, Corvus splendens (n=2518), house sparrow, Passer domesticus (n=772), common myna, Acridotheres tristis (n=327), black-crowned night heron, Nycticorax nycticorax (n=190) and jungle babbler, Turdoides striatus (n=186).

Confusion is introduced with the terms quyu and bage (literally, "eight songs"), both of which designate the myna bird (Acridotheres tristis).(65) The general size of the cuckoo and myna are comparable, some species crested, both possessing human-like vocalization.(66) The myna is mostly terrestrial, whereas the cuckoo is arboreal; the majority of Chinese myna species reside in southern China, while the cuckoo ranges all over.(67) Unlike the case of the hoopoe, where bisyllabic vocalization played a role, the confusion of the cuckoo with the myna is at the textual level only.

Rapid genetic differentiation and founder effect in colonizing populations of common Mynas (Acridotheres tristis).

They have been documented in domestic chickens, (7,26,27) 3 budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus), (11,28) a Java sparrow (Lonchura oryzivora), (29) a common mynah bird (Acridotheres tristis), (1) a finch, (30) a burrowing owl (Athene cunicularia), (16) a canary (Serinus canarius), (31) and a scarlet macaw (Ara macao) (12) (Table 1).

Six nests of common myna Acridotheres tristis were recorded at two sites out of five (Tables II, III; Fig.2 A); the preferred tree species for nesting included Acacia nilotica (n = 4) and Eucalyptus camaldulensis (n = 2).

house sparrow (Passer domesticus), common myna (Acridotheres tristis), bank myna (Acridotheres ginginianus), baya weaver (Ploceus philippinus), common quail (Coturnix coturnix), ringed dove (Streptopelia decaocto) and partridges (Francolinus spp.) and sell them in the local bird markets to earn their livelihoods.

Genus: Acridotheres. Species: Acridotheres tristis (House Myna); Acridotheres cristatellus (Crested Myna).
