The birds concerned are species of the genus Pitohui, common medium-sized omnivores that are old endemics of the island of New Guinea. When Dumbacher and colleagues collected and handled a pitohui, they noticed a strong smell and felt numbness and a burning sensation of the mouth... Ethanol extracts yielded the steroidal alkaloid homobatrachotoxin, a nerve and muscle poison previously known only as an active principle of poison-dart frogs(skins of the frogs are used by Amerindians to poison their blowgun darts). 1, record 4, English, - pitohui

Any of a variety of neurovascular syndromes resulting from compression of the subclavian artery, the brachial plexus nerve trunks, or less often the axillary vein or subclavian vein, by thoracic outlet abnormalities such as a drooping shoulder girdle, a cervical rib or fibrous band, an abnormal first rib, or occasionally compression of the edge of the scalenus anterior muscle. Continual hyperabduction of the arm may cause another variety(hyperabductions). Arterial compression leads to ischemia, paresthesias, numbness, and weakness of the affected arm, sometimes with Raynaud's phenomenon of the arm. Nerve compression causes atrophy and weakness of the muscles of the hand and, in advanced cases, of the forearm, with pain and sensory disturbances in the arm.
