Javan Pied Myna (Gracupica jalla)

About the Javan Pied Myna
The Javan pied myna (Gracupica jalla) is a species of starling in the family Sturnidae. Its Indonesian name is jalak suren. Its plumage is black and white, with a black collar. It was found in most of Java and Bali (but has been potentially extirpated from there since the mid-2010s) and formerly in southern Sumatra (where it is known to have become extinct in the area since the 1990s). Due to mass collection for the illegal wildlife trade and heavy pesticide use in the agricultural lands it used for feeding, it is now feared to be extinct in the wild.
