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。

Comoro Rousette

<em>Rousettus obliviosus</em>, the Comoro rousette, is a fruit bat in the family Pteropodidae endemic to the Comoros archipelago in the Indian Ocean, primarily recorded from Anjouan and Mohéli islands. As an Old World fruit bat, it plays an important ecological role in pollination and seed dispersal across the island's native forests. The species inhabits tropical moist lowland and montane forests, roosting in caves and dense vegetation. Its range is severely restricted by the small land area of the Comoros, making it inherently vulnerable to habitat loss. Deforestation driven by agricultural expansion and charcoal production has significantly reduced available forest cover on the islands. The IUCN classifies the Comoro rousette as Vulnerable, reflecting ongoing population pressures and limited geographic distribution. It is presumed to feed on fruits, nectar, and pollen typical of Old World fruit bats, though detailed dietary studies are limited. Biological traits including precise body measurements and lifespan data remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. Conservation efforts on the Comoros islands face challenges due to limited resources, though the species benefits from some protection within national parks and forest reserves. Its survival depends on the preservation of intact native forest habitat across the archipelago.
