The black-billed hanging parrot (Loriculus (philippensis) bonapartei) is a shy hanging parrot found only on the Sulu Archipelago of the Philippines.[1] Its taxonomic classification is controversial, some authors define the black-billed hanging parrot as a subgenus or subspecies of the Philippine hanging parrot,[1] while others consider it as another species of Loriculus.[1]

gollark: I don't see how this line works though: `if c in"ae":a+=int(c=="a")`. I mean, it doesn't look like it would decrement the accumulator at all.
gollark: Fiiiiine. `bin(a).replace("0b","")` should probably just be `bin(a)[2:]`. `eval` in the same line should probbaly be `int`.
gollark: I actually have some ideas for making anima's mildly shorter but that might not be the best idea?
gollark: Oh dear.
gollark: It's a bad spec.
