栗额金刚鹦鹉是一种中型金刚鹦鹉，分布于墨西哥南部至玻利维亚和巴西的中美洲和南美洲热带森林。主体羽色绿色，前额栗色，肩部红色，飞羽蓝色。它是真正金刚鹦鹉中最小的物种，栖息于森林边缘、稀树草原和次生林，常掠食农作物，在当地不受农民欢迎。它是受欢迎的笼养鸟，但野生种群因捕捉和森林砍伐而承受压力。

Common Juniper

Common Juniper (<em>Juniperus communis</em>) is a coniferous shrub or small tree in the family Cupressaceae and one of the most widely distributed woody plants in the Northern Hemisphere. It is classified as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List, indicating population declines driven by habitat loss, overgrazing, and changes in land management. The species has a remarkably broad native range spanning Africa (Libya), Europe (six countries), North America (United States), Oceania (Australia), and South America (Argentina and Brazil). It typically inhabits six distinct biome types and occurs within both the Neotropic and Palearctic biogeographic realms. Common Juniper grows in heathlands, rocky slopes, calcareous grasslands, open woodlands, and alpine environments, often colonizing nutrient-poor soils where competition from other plants is limited. Its berries are widely used as a flavoring for gin and in traditional cuisine. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
