Its
restricted range coupled with infrequent sightings has given the Ruspoli's
Turaco a reputation for being close to the brink of extinction. However,
recent evidence suggests that the species is not as uncommon as once
thought, though its distribution is very small. The Ruspoli inhabits
many of the same areas as the
White-cheeked
Turaco (T.leucotis), but remains distinct by reason of habitat and temporal
segregation. Also present from 1250-1860m, Ruspoli's Turaco prefers
acacia or conifer woodland and is primarily frugivorous. The typical
Ruspoli measures around 40cm from beak to tail, and weighs approximately
200-290g.
