About the Long-tailed Myna

The long-tailed myna (Mino kreffti) is a member of the starling family. It is native to the Bismarck and Solomon archipelagos. It resembles the yellow-faced myna, and the two were formerly considered conspecific. Its binomial name commemorates Gerard Krefft, Australian zoologist and palaeontologist.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 69 recordings for this species: 14 CC BY-NC-SA · 4 CC BY-NC-ND · 2 CC BY-NC. None of them permits commercial use, so there is no player here — the page is kept as a profile so the bird is not missing from the guide.

As soon as someone uploads a freely licensed recording, we mirror it and the player appears here.
