Appearance

Etymology
[edit]From twaalf (“twelve”) + draad (“wire”) + -ig (“adjectival suffix”) + paradijs (“paradise”) + hop (“hoopoe”) - but note that the hoopoe (Upupa epops) is only very distantly related to this bird, so taxonomically this is something of a misnomer.
Pronunciation

Noun
[edit]twaalfdradige paradijshop m (plural twaalfdradige paradijshoppen, diminutive twaalfdradig paradijshopje n)
