Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox The Biak lorikeet (Trichoglossus rosenbergii), also known as Rosenberg's lorikeet, is a parrot in the family Psittaculidae. Formerly lumped in with Trichoglossus haematodus, it is endemic to the twin islands of Biak and Superiori in the Papua province of Indonesia.[1]

Habitat

As a newly separated species, specific information is scarce. It is assumed to be similar to other Trichoglossus parakeets in preferring lowland forest including secondary growth and plantations.[2]

Threats

On Biak, forest is under heavy pressure from logging and subsistence farming. Trapping for trade does occur, but how much that affects the species is uncertain. Its population is believed to be decreasing, with fewer than 10,000 mature individuals in the wild.[2]
