The scaly-headed neckband parrot is a small parrot about 14 centimeters long. It lives only in the mountain forests of central New Guinea and has green plumage with dark stripes on the head.
This parrot is distinguished from related species by a special scaly pattern on the head and red markings on males. It helps the forest by dispersing plant seeds and serves as food for local predators.
Legendary longevity: over 100 years. Galapagos tortoises, Greenland sharks, ocean quahogs celebrate with family once every 4 years
