EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Historic Red Eared Firetail Finch: Emblema oculata (Stagonopleura oculata), 1894" 2.. This photograph showcases a well-preserved Red Eared Firetail Finch (Emblema oculata, syn. Stagonopleura oculata), an intriguing avian species native to Australia. The image, captured in 1894 (1894102695), is a testament to the rich history of ornithological exploration. 3. Description: The Red Eared Firetail Finch, also known as the Red-eared Finch or the Red-eared Triggerfinch, is a small, vibrant bird belonging to the Estrildidae family and the Passeriformes order. With its distinctive red ear patches, this finch is an eye-catching addition to any avian collection. 4. Historical Significance: This photograph, taken over a century ago, offers a glimpse into the past and the early days of ornithological research. The Red Eared Firetail Finch was first described scientifically by North in 1892, and this specimen, collected in 1894, is an essential piece of ornithological history. 5. Taxonomic Classification: The Red Eared Firetail Finch is classified as Sauropsida (reptile-descended vertebrates), Aves (birds), Passeriformes (perching birds), and Passerines (old world and new world songbirds). Its specific taxonomic name, Emblema oculata, translates to "emblem with red eyes," reflecting the bird's striking features. 6. Conservation Status: Today, the Red Eared Firetail Finch is classified as a species of least concern by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). However, this was not always the case, as habitat loss and fragmentation have threatened their populations in the past. 7. Conclusion: This photograph of a historic Red Eared Firetail Finch not only showcases the beauty and uniqueness of this avian species but also highlights the importance of ornithological research and the role it plays in documenting and preserving the natural world.
