“…There are clear correlations between species traits (such as morphology, diet, endemism, reproductive factors, etc. ), and extinction risk in many major taxonomic groups [8][9][10][11], which indicates that if the same traits were measured for unassessed species, extinction risk could be estimated [12]. When viewed from an evolutionary perspective, extinction risk is non-randomly distributed across a phylogeny, which depicts genealogical relationships among sets of species [13].…”

“…Sixty-five percent of Neotropical Amazon species are under a category of threat (Birdlife International 2016a). Nest poaching and the capture of adult birds for the pet trade, together with habitat loss due to deforestation, have contributed to the precipitous decline of Amazon parrot populations in Central America, South America, and the Caribbean region (Juniper and Parr 1998, Wright et al 2001, Clarke and Rolf 2013, Olah et al 2016. A few wild parrot populations, such as Argentinean Turquoise-fronted Parrots (Amazona aestiva), must also add to their list of threats the trapping for legal markets (Bolkovic and Ramadori 2006).…”

“…In the Calakmul region of the state of Campeche, large flocks of A. albifrons have been observed in perturbed areas; besides, this species is perceived as a pest by local peasant farmers, due to the damage they are thought to inflict on their cornfields (Galindo, 1999;Escalona & Velasco, 2000). However, we cannot ignore that this only occurs for a little number of species, because parrots are among the most threatened bird orders with 28 % of extant species classified as threatened under IUCN criteria (Olah et al, 2016).…”
