Roraiman Antbird
Myrmelastes saturatus
Dark bird of highland forest understory. Male is entirely dark gray except for bold white wing spots; female is brown above and rufous below with a gray face. Inhabits tall premontane forest, generally between 500–1800 m on tepui slopes, and is especially likely to be found in steep terrain and in areas with many large, mossy boulders. Usually found in pairs that forage for insects on or near the ground, probing into crevices and tossing aside leaves, much like others of genus; does not typically join mixed-species flocks. Song is a long series of sharp notes, swelling in volume and dropping in pitch at end. Very similar to Spot-winged Antbird of lowlands, which it replaces at higher elevations (no known overlap); best distinguished by voice and habitat.

Wallace's Owlet-nightjar
Aegotheles wallacii
A medium-sized owlet-nightjar of foothill forests. Dark brown wings and tail with barring and some additional white flecks on the wings. Dark head, whitish belly and buffy base to the chest covered with irregular, dark arrowhead marks. Potentially co-occurs with Mountain, Vogelkop and Barred Owlet-Nightjars, but Wallace’s lacks the distinct barring of Barred and Vogelkop, and the pale collar of all 3 species. Voice a simple, whistled “pweet pyuut” with the first note falling and second lower. Sometimes just one of these notes given.

Sooty Oystercatcher
Haematopus fuliginosus
Heavy-set shorebird with entirely black plumage and long, thick reddish bill. It has a distinctive fleshy red or yellow eye-ring and very thick pale-pink feet and legs. Exclusively coastal, where it can be found walking around on the edge of rocky headlands, on rock shelves, and along rocky beaches on small islands. Typically found in pairs or small groups. Its call is a loud slow whistled "chew", or when agitated a rapidly repeated "squeaky toy" call.

Sula Lorikeet
Trichoglossus flavoviridis
Vibrantly beautiful small lorikeet with a bright red bill and extensive golden-yellow “scaling” on the breast. Leaf-green back separated sharply from yellow head by a vertical dark bar. Large, pale bare patch around the eye give this parrot a somewhat “crazy” expression. Endemic to the Sula Archipelago, where it wanders foothill forests and more open areas in flocks, often gathering at fruiting and flowering trees. Bright yellow markings and overall shape distinguish this species from racquet-tails, hanging-parrots, and Tanygnathus parrots. Gives high-pitched shrieking calls. Formerly lumped in with Yellow-cheeked Lorikeet under the name “Yellow-and-green Lorikeet.”
