Chatham kaka
The Chatham kaka or Chatham Island kākā (''Nestor chathamensis'') is an extinct parrot species previously found on the Chatham Islands, New Zealand. The first individuals were thought to belong to the kākā (''Nestor meridionalis''), but detailed examination of the subfossil bones showed that they actually belong to a separate endemic species. The species became extinct within the first 150 years of the arrival of the Polynesians around 1550, long before any European settlers.〔 No skins or descriptions are available.〔
==Taxonomy==
The Chatham kaka is assigned to the genus ''Nestor'' in the family Nestoridae, a small group of parrot species native to New Zealand. It is considered to have been more closely related to the kākā (''Nestor meridionalis'') and the extinct Norfolk kaka (''Nestor productus'') than to the kea (''Nestor notabilis'').〔
