The expedition found a new type of honey-eating bird with a bright

Orange patch on its face, known only to local people and the first new

Bird species documented on the island in more than 60 years. It also

Found more than 20 new species of frog, four new species of butterfly

And plants including five new palms. It found a rare tree kangaroo, previously

Unsighted in Indonesia. Animals there were afraid of humans.

≪I suspect there are some areas like this in Africa, and am sure that

there are similar places in South America,≫ Beehler said. He added that

The Indonesian government was doing the right thing by keeping the area

Off limits to most visitors — including loggers and mineral prospectors.
