Неразлучник Лилианы

The Nyasa Lovebird, <em>Agapornis lilianae</em>, is a member of the family Psittaculidae, the Old World parakeets and lovebirds, and inhabits forest environments in its native range in southern Africa, particularly around Malawi, Zambia, Mozambique, and Tanzania. Its conservation status is Near Threatened, with population declines attributed to trapping for the cage bird trade and habitat loss. Unlike several other lovebirds that use tree cavities, the Nyasa Lovebird nests in excavated chambers, typically in termite mounds or earthen banks, with an incubation period of approximately 22 days and a fledging period of around 44 days. Clutch sizes range from 3 to 8 eggs. Detailed plumage and behavioral descriptions of this species are limited in the available literature, though the species has bright green plumage with an orange-red face, typical of several Agapornis lovebirds. As a Near Threatened species, the Nyasa Lovebird requires continued conservation attention. Lovebirds generally feed on seeds, fruits, and vegetation. Song and dietary specifics for this species are not detailed in current available records.
