Spotted
Abbott's Blue-rumped Parrot is an exceptionally rare or possibly extinct subspecies of the Blue-rumped Parrot, historically known from Simeulue Island off Sumatra. It is distinguished by subtle plumage differences.
Where to spot
Historically found on Simeulue Island, off the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia, in lowland forests.
How to spot
Observation is highly unlikely due to its extreme rarity or extinction. If by chance sighted, identification would be based on its small size, green plumage, and blue rump, compared to the nominate subspecies.
When to spot
Potentially extinct; no recent confirmed sightings. Historically, it would have been active during daylight hours.
This subspecies highlights the vulnerability of island endemic populations, as it has not been reliably sighted in decades, underscoring the urgency of habitat preservation.
