Anodorhynchus purpurascens Rothschild, 1907
|
Anodorhynchus purpurascens, is an hypothetical extinct species of parrot. Its native name was Oné Couli.[citation needed] It was described by Rothschild and featured in his book, Extinct Birds published in 1907,[1] but there is very little evidence to support it as separate species.[2] Rothschild named the species because uniform bluish coloured macaws were said to have inhabited the island of Guadeloupe;[1] however, they were probably Hyacinth Macaws imported from the mainland of South America.[2]
