The Brazza's martin was first described in 1886 under the binomial name Phedina brazzae by the French zoologist Émile Oustalet from a specimen obtained at Nganchu in the Ngabé District of what is now the Republic of Congo.[2][3][4] This martin is now the only species placed in the genus Phedinopsis that was introduced in 1971 by the German ornithologist Hans Edmund Wolters.[5][6] The genus name, Phedinopsis combines the genus Phedina with the Ancient Greek opsis meaning "appearance".[7] The species name commemorates Italian-born French explorer Pierre Savorgnan de Brazza, later to become governor-general of the French Congo,[8] who collected the type specimen.[9] This species was often called the "Congo martin",[3] but this invites confusion with the Congo sand martin or Congo martin, Riparia congica.[6] Brazza's martin is a member of the swallow family of birds, and is classed as a member of the Hirundininae subfamily, which comprises all swallows and martins except the very distinctive river martins. DNA sequence studies suggest that there are three major groupings within the Hirundininae, broadly correlating with the type of nest built. These groups are the "core martins", including burrowing species like the sand martin; the "nest-adopters", which are birds like the tree swallow that use natural cavities; and the "mud nest builders", such as the barn swallow, which build a nest from mud. The species nests in burrows and therefore belong to the "core martins" group.[10][11] Brazza's martin is thought to be an early offshoot from the main swallow lineage, although the striped plumage suggests a distant relationship with several streaked African Hirundo species.[12][13] Brazza's martin was previously included in the genus Phedina, although it is now included in its own genus Phedinopsis due to the significant differences in vocalisations and nest type from its relative.[12][5] Description The Brazza's martin is 12 cm (4.72 in) long with wings averaging 100.5 mm (3.95 in). This small hirundine has grey-brown upperparts with a somewhat darker brown head and white underparts heavily streaked with blackish-brown from the throat to vent. There is a brownish tint to the breast plumage. The square tail averages 46.8 mm (1.8 in) long and has white edges to the brown undertail coverts. The flight feathers are blackish-brown and the bill and legs are black. The eyes are dark brown and the black bill averages 8.5 mm (0.33 in) long. The sexes are similar, but juvenile birds have more diffuse breast streaking and reddish-brown or buff edges to the feathers of the back and wings.[3][14] This bird has no subspecies.[15] The song consists of a series of short notes increasing in frequency which are followed by a complex buzz and sometimes completed by a number of clicks. The song becomes increasingly loud, although the final clicks are quite soft. The song is similar to that of the banded martin, and does not resemble the Mascarene martin, suggesting unresolved taxonomic problems.[16] The flight is variously described as heavy,[3] or like that of a sand martin.[17] Brazza's martin can be distinguished from most other swallows within its range by the heavy streaking on the underparts.[3] Although the lesser striped swallow also has white underparts with dark streaking, it is larger, has a deeply forked tail and a very different plumage, with dark blue upperparts, a red rump and a chestnut head.[18] Compared to the Mascarene martin, this species is smaller, has a plainer back and finer dashing on the throat and chest,[19] but there is no range overlap.[20] चीन की कम्युनिस्ट पार्टी का लगातार तीसरी बार सर्वोच्च नेता चुने जाने के बाद अब शी जिनपिंग ने वहां की सेना पर भी पूरी तरह से अपना कंट्रोल हासिल कर लिया है। चीन की सेना अब केवल अपने देश के प्रति ही नहीं, बल्कि शी जिनपिंग के प्रति भी वफादारी रहेगी। ऐसे में शी जिनपिंग की चीन की सत्ता पर पकड़ और मजबूत होगी। द हांगकांग पोस्ट के मुताबिक शी जिनपिंग ने अपनी फौज को आदेश दिए हैं कि वो अपनी सारी ताकत लड़ाई की तैयारियां करने में लगाएं। जो भी मिशन उन्हें सौंपे जाएं उनमें पूरी तरह से कामयाब हों। In a presumed example of courtship behaviour, a male Brazza's martin perched about 30 cm (1 ft) away from a female and sang for about ten minutes. As it sang, the male leant towards the female, which caused the still-folded wings and tail to rise relative to the body.[16] The Brazza's martin nests in the vertical banks of forested rivers from July to October, at the end of the dry season but before the river levels are high enough to cause flooding.[3] A small colony of four pairs was recorded breeding near a rocky outcrop on the side of a valley.[4] The Brazza's martin nests singly or in loose colonies with sometimes widely separated burrows. The nest is a small heap of soft material such as feathers or dry grass at the end of a typically 50-cm (20-in) tunnel. The normal clutch is three white eggs. The eggs measure 18.5 x 11.25 mm (0.73 x 0.49 in) and weigh 1.5 g (0.05 oz). The incubation and fledging times are unknown,[3] although as with all hirundines the chicks are altricial, hatching naked and blind.[23] As with other swallows, Brazza's martin feeds on flying insects, including termites, and may hunt over rivers or open savanna.[3] It can occur in single-species flocks or with other swallows including barn swallows, lesser striped swallows,[1][16] or rock martins.[17] Status There has been little ornithological research in this part of Africa, and until 2008 the Brazza's martin was classified as Data Deficient.[1] It was thought to have a much more restricted distribution range, but a 2007 paper presented evidence that extended its known range by 500 km (300 mi) to the north and 175 km (90 mi) southwards, a quadrupling of the area.[16] It has a large range of 402,000 km2 (155,000 sq mi) although the total population is unknown. Its extensive range and apparently stable population means this bird is classed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List.[24] It is likely that this species is dug out for food by humans, but its small, dispersed colonies in firm soil suggest that it is a less rewarding target than the densely packed sandbank nests of species such as the African river martin and rosy bee-eater.[16] Breeding colonies in river sandbars are liable to flooding,[1] but neither natural causes nor hunting appears to be having a serious impact, and this species seems under no immediate threat. Its ability to use degraded habitats also aids its survival.[24] The Brazza's martin is not a protected species in Angola,[25] the DRC,[26] or the Republic of Congo.[27] p.s.

Thanks, The ToutApp Happiness Team JMUNP ---------------------------- On Software Quality and Building a Better Evernote in 2014 oday's 8 minutes indexing downtime Deapology Today's 8 minutes indexing downtime What is known about Isaac Sailmaker's life comes from notes published by the 18th century engraver, artist, and antiquary George Vertue.[2][note 2] Sailmaker, whose family name was probably Zeilmaker, was born in 1633 in the village of Scheveningen in the Dutch Republic.[3] He came to London at a young age and became one of the first apprentices of George Geldorp or Gelders, a Flemish portraitist and art dealer who had bought a studio after moving to London from the Dutch Republic.[4][5] As a portraitist, Geldorp did not provide his young pupil with a typical marine artist's education,[6] and it is unlikely Sailmaker's interest in marine painting was inspired by his teacher.[5] An exact contemporary of the Dutch marine painter Willem van de Velde the Younger,[7] Sailmaker was eclipsed by van de Velde and his father Willem van de Velde the Elder when they moved to London in the 1670s.[8] Sailmaker, along with Jan van de Hagen, Jacob Knijff, and the most talented of the group, Peter Monamy, were members of the Younger van de Velde's London studio; they all continued van de Velde's artistic style.[9] Sailmaker, who may have been a copyist in the van de Velde studio, outlived both father and son,[9] and was still painting into his eighties.[8] He was one of Britain's earliest marine painters, and was referred to in contemporary catalogues and books as "the father of British sea painting".[10] He was the first marine painter from England to depict naval action involving an English fleet using oils.[11] Sailmaker is known to have for worked for England's Lord Protector, Oliver Cromwell during the 1650s, but most of his known works date from the 1680s.[7] Vertue wrote that Sailmaker "employed himself always in painting views, small and great, many sea-ports and ships about England" and calls him "a constant labourer", which suggests that he produced a large body of work during his lifetime.[12] At the end of his life, Sailmaker was living in a house along King's Bench Walk in the Temple Bar area of the city of London. He died at home on 28 June 1721.[13] Artistic style and attributions Paintings attributed to Sailmaker include ship portraits and depictions of various naval actions. He was commissioned by Cromwell to paint the English fleet at Fort-Mardyck, prior to the fort's capture by an Anglo-French force in September 1657,[note 3] but all his commissioned paintings from Cromwell, and also from the politician John Lovett, are now lost.[2][15][note 4] Sailmaker's surviving works reveal that he painted in a basic version of the Dutch style, making portraits of ships side on, stern and bow view.[16] His only contemporary marine artist in England, Monamy, developed a technically advanced style and produced works that were brighter and more colourful than other paintings which emerged from the Van de Velde studio—in comparison to Sailmaker, he was a more competent and realistic artist.[17] Painting of Eddystone Lighthous by Sailmaker Isaac Sailmaker, Men-o'-War and other Vessels before the Eddystone Lighthouse (undated) Engraving after Sailmaker of Eddystone Lighthouse Henry Hulsbergh (after Sailmaker), Edystone Light House (c. 1733), British Museum An advertisement for an engraving by Sailmaker in the Term Catalogue of November 1692 stated:[18] GLORIA Britanniae or An exact draught of the large Ship, called the Royal Prince in several postures, drawn by Mr. Isaac Saylmaker. Curiously Engraven upon a Large Copper Plate, above two foot long and a foot and nine inches deep. Price 1s. In large Dutch paper, pasted on paper and coloured, 2s. 6d. The attribution of his paintings has been problematic for many years, as his surviving works are unsigned.[note 5] Paintings originally said to have been created by him were later reattributed to the Dutch painter Jacob Knyff.[1][8] Sailmaker's identity became uncertain until the 1970s.[7] A contemporary painting of the second Eddystone Lighthouse, built in 1709, was firmly attributed to Sailmaker in the 1970s on the basis of documentary evidence.[8][20] Other paintings have been attributed to him on the basis of engravings after his work.[13] Identification of Sailmaker's work is aided by characteristics of his artistic style, such as his depiction of ruffles across ships' flags, his palette, which was limited to variations of grey, green and black, and his method of using raised gold 'blobs' to show the gilding on his ships instead of flat brush strokes.[21]
