Cyanoramphus [novaezelandiae, erythrotis, subflavescens] (Red-fronted, Macquarie or Lord Howe Parakeet)

Red-fronted, Macquarie or Lord Howe Parakeet

Cyanoramphus [novaezelandiae, erythrotis, subflavescens] (= Cyanoramphus novaezelandiae) (Sparrman, A 1787)

The red-crowned parakeet, also known as red-fronted parakeet and by its Māori name of kākāriki, is a small parrot from New Zealand. It is characterised by its bright green plumage and the red pattern on its head. This versatile bird can feed on a variety food items and can be found in many habitat types. It used to be classified as near threatened as invasive predators had pushed it out of its historical range but it is now at least concern. This species used to occupy the entire island, but is now confined to only a few areas on the mainland and some offshore islands. Source: Wikipedia
