IBIS    音标拼音: ['ɑɪbəs]
n. 朱鹭

朱鹭

ibis
n 1: wading birds of warm regions having long slender down-
curved bills

Ibis \I"bis\, n. [L. ibis, Gr. ?; of Egyptian origin.] (Zool.)
Any bird of the genus {Ibis} and several allied genera, of
the family {Ibid[ae]}, inhabiting both the Old World and the
New. Numerous species are known. They are large, wading
birds, having a long, curved beak, and feed largely on
reptiles.
[1913 Webster]

Note: The sacred ibis of the ancient Egyptians ({Ibis
aethiopica}) has the head and neck black, without
feathers. The plumage of the body and wings is white,
except the tertiaries, which are lengthened and form a
dark purple plume. In ancient times this bird was
extensively domesticated in Egypt, but it is now seldom
seen so far north. The glossy ibis ({Plegadis
autumnalis}), which is widely distributed both in the
Old World and the New, has the head and neck feathered,
except between the eyes and bill; the scarlet ibis
({Guara rubra}) and the white ibis ({Guara alba})
inhabit the West Indies and South America, and are
rarely found in the United States. The wood ibis
({Tantalus loculator}) of America belongs to the Stork
family ({Ciconid[ae]}). See {Wood ibis}.
[1913 Webster]
