Corvus mellori
Medium sized, all-black plumage, beak and legs with a white iris. Looks like other Oceania members of the corvus family but slightly smaller. Separate status from the "Australian Raven' in 1967.
Most of Australia. Overlaps range with Australian Raven but not as extensive.
Also more social and more omnivorous than Australian Raven. Highly intelligent.
