The Hawaii mamo (''Drepanis pacifica'') was a species of Hawaiian honeycreeper. It was endemic to Hawaii. It became extinct due to habitat loss and overcollecting. ==Description== This bird averaged 9 in (23 cm) in length. It was mostly black with bright yellow feathers on its rump, undertail coverts, shoulders, and legs. There was a white patch on the primaries. It had small, black eyes and was the centerpiece of portraits. It had a slightly decurved blackish bill, some three inches long. Juveniles may have been brown.〔http://julianhume.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Olson-Hume-Drepanis-plumages.pdf〕 This shy species lived in the forest canopy and fed on lobelia nectar, from the plant's curved, tubular flowers. Its call was a long, plaintive whistle.
