Scarlet-backed Flowerpecker Dicaeum cruentatum ignitum
- Adult male Photographer : © Amar-Singh HSS Location : limestone hills at city fringe with secondary growth, Ipoh, Perak, Malaysia Date :
12 November 2020 English synonyms: Scarlet backed Flowerpecker, Pryer’s Flowerpecker (black-breasted morph "pryeri ") Bird Family : Dicaeidae - Flowerpeckers & Mistletoebird Bird Group : PASSERIFORMES Red Data Status : Least Concern Remarks : Most of the food items I have observed the Scarlet-backed Flowerpecker take are fruit. Occasionally insects and invertebrates are taken to feed young. I have previously only seen nectar feeding on Mistletoe. On this occasion I saw an adult male taking nectar from a Syzygium samarangense (Water Jambu) – a local plant grown in commercial orchards for the fruit. No images of the activity.
Food items I have previously observed Scarlet-backed Flowerpeckers feeding on:
Dendrophthoe pentandra (Malaysian Mistletoe) – native plant, nectar & fruit feeding
Scurrula ferruginea (Rusty-leaf Mistletoe) – native plant, fruit feeding
Clidemia hirta (Hairy Clidemia) – exotic plant, fruit feeding
Muntingia calabura (Village Cherry) – exotic plant, fruit feeding
Melastoma malabathricum (Straits rhododendron) – native plant, fruit feeding
Pipturus argenteus (Native or Australian Mulberry) – exotic plant, fruit feeding
