  • Hispaniolan Amazon – Birdlife Species Factsheet
    Hispaniolan Amazon – BirdLife Species Factsheet VU Hispaniolan Amazon Amazona ventralis 2007 IUCN Red List Category (as evaluated by BirdLife International - the official Red List Authority for birds for IUCN): Vulnerable Justification This species is considered Vulnerable because anecdotal evidence suggests that there has been a rapid population reduction. The size of the population and the exact extent of the decline are unclear, and clarification may lead to the species being reclassified as Near Threatened. Family/Sub-family Psittacidae Species name author (Müller, 1776) Taxonomic source(s) AOU checklist (1998 + supplements), Sibley and Monroe (1990, 1993), Stotz et al. (1996) Identification 28-31 cm. Bright green parrot with white forehead, blue flight feathers, maroon belly-patch and red in tail. Similar spp. Only Amazona parrot on Hispaniola. Introduced in Puerto Rico where more common that Puerto Rican Parrot A. vittata . Voice Noisy. Wide variety of squawks and screeches. Bugling flight call. Population Range estimate Country Population trend estimate (breeding/resident) endemic? 10,000-19,999 decreasing 14,300 km 2 No Range & population Amazona ventralis is endemic to Hispaniola ( Haiti and the Dominican Republic ) and associated islands of Grande Cayemite, Gonâve, Beata and Saona 1. Introduced populations are established in Puerto 1 Rico (to USA), and St Croix and St Thomas in the Virgin Islands (to USA) 1. It was common on Hispaniola, but declined seriously during the 20th century. By the 1930s, it was mainly restricted to the interior mountains, where it remains locally common in suitable habitat, particularly within several major forest reserves 4,5 . Elsewhere, it is now uncommon, rare or absent 4.

  • Evaluation of the Agreement Among Three Handheld Blood Glucose
    Evaluation of the agreement among three handheld blood glucose meters and a laboratory blood analyzer for measurement of blood glucose concentration in Hispaniolan Amazon parrots (Amazona ventralis) Mark J. Acierno, MBA, DVM; Mark A. Mitchell, DVM, PhD; Patricia J. Schuster; Diana Freeman, DVM; David Sanchez-Migallon Guzman, Lic. en Vet., MS; Thomas N. Tully Jr, DVM, MS Objective—To determine the degree of agreement between 3 commercially available point-of-care blood glucose meters and a laboratory analyzer for measurement of blood glucose concentrations in Hispaniolan Amazon parrots (Amazona ventralis). Animals—20 healthy adult Hispaniolan Amazon parrots. Procedures—A 26-gauge needle and 3-mL syringe were used to obtain a blood sample (approx 0.5 mL) from a jugular vein of each parrot. Small volumes of blood (0.6 to 1.5 µL) were used to operate each of the blood glucose meters, and the remainder was placed into lithium heparin microtubes and centrifuged. Plasma was harvested and frozen at –30°C. Within 5 days after collection, plasma samples were thawed and plasma glucose concen- trations were measured by means of the laboratory analyzer. Agreement between pairs of blood glucose meters and between each blood glucose meter and the laboratory analyzer was evaluated by means of the Bland-Altman method, and limits of agreement (LOA) were calculated. Results—None of the results of the 3 blood glucose meters agreed with results of the labo- ratory analyzer. Each point-of-care blood glucose meter underestimated the blood glucose concentration, and the degree of negative bias was not consistent (meter A bias, –94.9 mg/dL [LOA, –148.0 to –41.7 mg/dL]; meter B bias, –52 mg/dL [LOA, –107.5 to 3.5 mg/dL]; and meter C bias, –78.9 mg/dL [LOA, –137.2 to –20.6 mg/dL]).

  • Ultimate Papua New Guinea Ii
    The fantastic Forest Bittern showed memorably well at Varirata during this tour! (JM) ULTIMATE PAPUA NEW GUINEA II 25 AUGUST – 11 / 15 SEPTEMBER 2019 LEADER: JULIEN MAZENAUER Our second Ultimate Papua New Guinea tour in 2019, including New Britain, was an immense success and provided us with fantastic sightings throughout. A total of 19 Birds-of-paradise (BoPs), one of the most striking and extraordinairy bird families in the world, were seen. The most amazing one must have been the male Blue BoP, admired through the scope near Kumul lodge. A few females were seen previously at Rondon Ridge, but this male was just too much. Several males King-of-Saxony BoP – seen displaying – ranked high in our most memorable moments of the tour, especially walk-away views of a male obtained at Rondon Ridge. Along the Ketu River, we were able to observe the full display and mating of another cosmis species, Twelve-wired BoP. Despite the closing of Ambua, we obtained good views of a calling male Black Sicklebill, sighted along a new road close to Tabubil. Brown Sicklebill males were seen even better and for as long as we wanted, uttering their machine-gun like calls through the forest. The adult male Stephanie’s Astrapia at Rondon Ridge will never be forgotten, showing his incredible glossy green head colours. At Kumul, Ribbon-tailed Astrapia, one of the most striking BoP, amazed us down to a few meters thanks to a feeder especially created for birdwatchers. Additionally, great views of the small and incredible King BoP delighted us near Kiunga, as well as males Magnificent BoPs below Kumul.

  • Subspecific Diagnoses in the Scarlet-Breasted Lorikeet Trichoglossus Forsteni
    FORKTAIL 33 (2017): 46–52 Subspecific diagnoses in the Scarlet-breasted Lorikeet Trichoglossus forsteni N. J. COLLAR I reviewed 53 specimens representing the four subspecies of Trichoglossus forsteni (27 mitchellii, 8 forsteni, 9 djampeanus and 9 stresemanni) in order to determine the characters by which to assign captive birds correctly to subspecies-specific breeding programmes. The subspecies form a cline of increasing size from west to east but, contrary to indications in the literature (even in original descriptions), they can only be diagnosed on a few characters in combination with their minor size differences: mitchellii is smallest, with olive-green crown-streaks, brownest-looking head, least blue-tinged black belly-patch, least amount of dark bars that tend, in the other taxa, to coalesce into a blackish mantle-patch, and often a rufous-tinged occiput; forsteni, slightly longer-winged and -tailed, has a relatively large bill and an often much more obvious dark mantle-patch; djampeanus consistently shows a pronounced blackish mantle-patch usually flecked with red feathers, typically with the strongest blue streaking on the crown and the most obvious blue tinge to the black belly-patch, and is larger than forsteni except in bill; while stresemanni is longest-winged and -tailed, with the largest bill, but has a variable dark mantle-patch as in forsteni and an often green-tinged occiput. Separate breeding programmes for each subspecies are desirable, but if too few birds are available then mixing them to maintain the species may be unavoidable.
