Red-billed quelea Red-billed quelea The red-billed quelea (; "Quelea quelea"), also known as the red-billed weaver or red-billed dioch, is a small—approximately long and weighing —migratory, sparrow-like bird of the weaver family, Ploceidae, native to Sub-Saharan Africa. It was named by Linnaeus in 1758, who considered it a bunting, but Ludwig Reichenbach assigned it in 1850 to the new genus "Quelea". Three subspecies are recognised, with "Quelea quelea quelea" occurring roughly from Senegal to Chad, "Q. q. aethiopica" from Sudan to Somalia and Tanzania, and "Q. q. lathamii" from Gabon to Mozambique and South Africa. Non-breeding birds have light underparts, striped brown

"Beast", "humanoid" and "monstrous humanoid" remained classified as creature types, while many subtypes from earlier editions were converted to keywords, as were some types, such as "undead" and "construct". "Animates" are magically animated creatures, such as golems, zombies
