The blue-capped ifrit (Ifrita kowaldi), also known as the blue | География
The blue-capped ifrit (Ifrita kowaldi), also known as the blue-capped ifrita, is a small and insectivorous passerine species. Blue-capped ifrits are considered an ancient relict species endemic to New Guinea.
Ifrits excrete batrachotoxin into their feathers and skin in order to defend themselves against predators. Generally, batrachotoxin binds and permanently opens the sodium channels in nerve cells and can cause paralysis.
