About the Rusty-faced Parrot

The rusty-faced parrot (Hapalopsittaca amazonina) is a Near Threatened species of bird in subfamily Arinae of the family Psittacidae, the African and New World parrots. It is found in Colombia and Venezuela and possibly Ecuador. The rusty-faced parrot has these three subspecies: H. a. theresae (Hellmayr, 1915) H. a. velezi Graves, GR & Restrepo, 1989 H. a. amazonina (Des Murs, 1845) What are now Fuertes's parrot (H. fuertesi) and the red-faced parrot (H. pyrrhops) were previously treated as subspecies of the rusty-faced parrot. The three now make a superspecies.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 37 recordings for this species: 28 CC BY-NC-SA · 6 CC BY-NC-ND. None of them permits commercial use, so there is no player here — the page is kept as a profile so the bird is not missing from the guide.

As soon as someone uploads a freely licensed recording, we mirror it and the player appears here.
