Green Racquet-tail

Prioniturus luconensis

The green racket-tail is an endemic parrot of the Philippines where it is found on Luzon and Marinduque. This species was once common, but is rapidly declining and is currently classified as endangered due to lowland deforestation and capture for cage-bird trade. The population is now estimated to be just 300 - 800 mature individuals and is continuing to decline with many local extinctions in its former range.
