Adult shiny black cockatoos can reach a length of 50 cm (19.5 in). They are sexually dimorphic. Males are black-brown except for the visible red tail on the lower tip; Females are dark brown with distinctive yellow markings around the neck and tail band with distinct red and black stripes.
Three types have been recognized, although this method is controversial. A detailed morphological analysis by Saunders and Pickup 2023 shows that body size is smaller across the species’ latitudinal range, with northern range birds being smaller than birds within the range. south Saunders and Pickup argued that the different species were not justified because there was no difference in snout morphology, no difference in genetic makeup, no difference in plumage or color, and no difference in diet.

Description
glossy black cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus lathami)
Glossy Black Cockatoo Parrot Eggs / parrot (Calyptorhynchus lathami) is a remarkable species known for its striking appearance and unique behaviors. Here are some key details about their eggs and reproduction:
Reproduction and Nesting:
– Breeding Season: The breeding season for Glossy Black Cockatoos typically occurs from March to August, although it can vary depending on geographic location and environmental conditions.
– Nesting Sites: They prefer to nest in large tree hollows, often in Eucalyptus or Allocasuarina trees, which provide suitable cavities for their nests. These hollows are usually high up to protect from predators.
– Egg Description: Glossy Black Cockatoos lay one or occasionally two eggs per clutch. The eggs are white and relatively large, given the size of the bird. They are elliptical in shape and smooth in texture.
– Incubation: The female incubates the egg(s) for about 30 days. During this period, she relies on the male to bring her food.
– Chick Rearing: Once the chicks hatch, they are altricial, meaning they are born blind, naked, and helpless. They remain in the nest for approximately 90 days, receiving care and feeding from both parents. The male continues to forage and provide food for the female and chicks, primarily feeding them seeds from the Casuarina (she-oak) trees.
Conservation:
Glossy Black Cockatoos are considered vulnerable due to habitat loss, particularly the reduction of suitable nesting trees and food sources. Conservation efforts are focused on protecting their habitat, particularly the preservation and restoration of she-oak forests, and installing artificial nest boxes to supplement natural nesting sites.
