New research from the University of Adelaide shows glossy black-cockatoos prefer to feed from trees growing in acidic soils.

Sheoak trees are three times more likely to be used as feeding trees if they are growing on non-limestone sedimentary rocks.

The species is listed as endangered in South Australia and as vulnerable throughout the rest of its distribution.
