Spotted
The New Caledonian Lorikeet is a critically endangered and possibly extinct species endemic to New Caledonia. It was described as a vibrant green parrot with a distinctive red band on its forehead.
Where to spot
Historically found in forests of New Caledonia. Current status is uncertain.
How to spot
If it still exists, deep forest exploration with a focus on old-growth areas would be necessary. Listen for any parrot-like calls.
When to spot
Historically, active during the day. Currently, observation is highly unlikely due to its potential extinction.
This lorikeet is known only from a few specimens collected in the 19th century and has not been reliably sighted since, making it one of the most enigmatic parrots.
