Guadeloupe amazon

The Guadeloupe amazon (''Amazona violacea''), or Guadeloupe parrot, is a hypothetical extinct species of parrot in the Psittacidae family. It was endemic to Guadeloupe. It was hunted, and by 1779 was already rare. Today it is extinct.
==Taxonomy==

The Guadeloupe amazon was first mentioned by Jean-Baptiste Du Tertre in 1664 and Jean-Baptiste Labat.
The description has led to restorations – mostly based on literal interpretation of the old descriptions – but altogether the sources indicate a bird with the general color pattern of the imperial amazon (''A. imperialis'') of Dominica, the next major island south of Guadeloupe. Storrs Olson and Edgar Maíz consider ''"A. violacea"'' as probably identical to the living species.
A bone found on Marie-Galante – between Dominica and Guadeloupe – has been assigned to ''A. violacea''; this may be taken to suggest that ''A. imperialis'' inhabited and/or was traded between all three islands in prehistoric times.〔
