Abstract
Ninety (26%) of the world's parrot species are threatened with extinction. While this figure will vary with deteriorating circumstances, taxonomic insight and assessment of new evidence, the great majority (currently 93%) of threatened parrots are forest species, most (75 species, 83%) have populations estimated at less than 10 000 mature individuals, and many (37 species, 41%) have ranges %%20 000km2. Habitat destruction (notably the loss of nest‐sites), trade, hunting and introduced species are significant threats. Indonesia, Australia, Brazil, the Philippines, Colombia and Mexico support two‐thirds (60 species) of all threatened parrots. Conservation of sites with sympatric threatened parrots is required, alongside research and awareness programmes that enable site and species management.
