Yellow-billed amazon
The yellow-billed amazon, also called the Jamaican amazon, (''Amazona collaria'') is a species of parrot in the Psittacidae family. It is a predominantly green parrot with a short tail and pink throat and neck. It is endemic to Jamaica, where its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical mangrove forests, subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, plantations, and rural gardens. It is threatened by habitat loss and illegal trapping of wild birds for the pet trade.
The yellow-billed amazon was one of the many species originally described by Linnaeus in his 18th century work, ''Systema Naturae''.
==Description==
The yellow-billed amazon is long.〔 Its plumage is mostly green with pink over the throat, upper breast and sides of neck,〔 and blue in the larger wing feathers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url = http://www.birdlife.org/datazone/species/index.html?action=SpcHTMDetails.asp&sid=1661&m=0 )〕 Feathers over the ears are dark blue-green.〔 The bare white eye-rings are surrounded by a narrow rim of white plumage, which continues as a narrow band of white over the forehead.〔 Plumage over the lores is pale blue and the fore-crown is blue.〔 A barred appearance over the back and sides of neck arises from the green feathers having black tips and edges.〔 The tail feathers are green with red bases.〔 Its beak is yellow, its irises are brown, and its legs are pink.〔Forshaw (2006). plate 107.〕 The adult male and female are identical in external appearance.〔 Juveniles have grey on the upper mandible and are otherwise similar to adults.〔
