Leaf lorikeet
The leaf lorikeet (''Trichoglossus weberi''), also known as the Flores lorikeet or Weber's lorikeet, is a monotypic species of parrot that is endemic to the Indonesian island of Flores. It used to be considered a subspecies of the rainbow lorikeet,〔Juniper, T., & M. Parr (1998). ''A Guide to the Parrots of the World.'' Pica Press. ISBN 1-873403-40-2〕 but following a review in 1997,〔Schodde, R. & I. J. Mason (1997). ''Zoological Catalogue of Australia, Volume 37, Part 2: Aves (Columbidae to Coraciidae).'' Australian Biological Resources Study. ISBN 0-643-06037-5〕 it is increasingly treated as a separate species.〔Dickinson, E. C. (editor) (2003). ''The Howard and Moore Complete Checklist of the Birds of the World.'' 3d edition. Christopher Helm. ISBN 0-7136-6536-X〕〔Gill, F., M. Wright, & D. Donsker (2009). ''(IOC World Bird Names ).'' Version 2.1. Accessed 20-06-2009〕
Unlike all other members of the rainbow lorikeet group, the leaf lorikeet has an overall green plumage, with only a paler lime green chest and collar.〔 With a total length of approximately 23 cm, it is the smallest member of the rainbow lorikeet group.〔(Lexicon of Parrots, online version. ) Arndt Verlag. Accessed 20-06-2009〕
It inhabits the edge of primary forest, secondary forest, woodland and plantations at altitudes up to 1400 m.〔Coates, B. J., & K. D. Bishop (1997). ''A Guide to the Birds of Wallacea.'' Dove Publications Pty. Ltd. ISBN 0-9590257-3-1〕 It remains fairly common,〔 but its relatively small distribution could give cause for future concern.
