Wilhelmina's bird of paradise, also known as Wilhelmina's riflebird, is a bird in the family Paradisaeidae that is presumed to be an intergeneric hybrid between a superb bird of paradise and magnificent bird of paradise.
History
Three adult male specimens are known of this hybrid, held in the American Museum of Natural History, Royal Natural History Museum of the Netherlands, and the Dresden Natural History Museum. Two of the specimens come from the Arfak Mountains of north-western New Guinea, while the other is of unknown provenance. The bird was named as a species by Adolf Bernard Meyer in 1894 after Wilhelmina of the Netherlands.[1]
