Vasa Parrot

Le Grand Vaza (Coracopsis vasa), aussi connu en tant que Perroquet vaza, est une espèce d'oiseaux de la famille des Psittaculidae. Description Il mesure 50 cm environ. Son plumage est gris-brun sombre, mais légèrement plus pâle sur les parties inférieures.

The name vasa parrot is also used for the greater vasa parrot. The vasa parrots that form the genus Coracopsis are four species of parrot in the parrot family Psittrichasiidae that are endemic to Madagascar and other islands in the western Indian Ocean. Some taxonomists formerly placed the species in the genus in Mascarinus, but this is now thought to be based on the results of a heavily flawed, later-debunked genetic study.
