Instantly recognisable by its striking contrast of pure white head and chestnut-brown body, it is a familiar species of open grasslands, rice fields, and scrub, often encountered in large flocks. A popular cagebird across the region, it is one of the most distinctive munias in the genus \u003cem\u003eLonchura\u003c\/em\u003e. The estrildid skeleton is a refined and well-proportioned example of passerine osteology — featuring the characteristic robust bill adapted for seed husking, compact furcula, and slender hindlimb bones clearly preserved in this specimen. A precise and elegant addition to any serious natural history collection or artistic display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerfect for ornithologists, naturalists, natural history collectors, educators, artists, and interior designers seeking authentic specimens with genuine scientific and aesthetic value.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BugsDirect","offers":[{"title":"Pack of 1","offer_id":46801310056637,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pack of 3","offer_id":46801310089405,"sku":null,"price":147.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pack of 5","offer_id":46801310122173,"sku":null,"price":215.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1228\/7064\/files\/lonchuramajaJvsklet.jpg?v=1779017739","url":"https:\/\/www.bugsdirect.com\/en-au\/products\/lonchura-maja-skeleton","provider":"BugsDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
