The Saint Lucia Amazon, or Amazona versicolor, is found in the central-southern mountains of Saint Lucia. The species has undergone a rapid reduction in its range since 1950, when there was almost 300 square kilometres of available habitat. There have been drastic population losses, but these have partially been reversed by conservation action. Population counts in 1996 estimated the wild population at between 350-500 individuals, and noted some expansion in range. |
