The purple-capped lory is a brightly colored medium-sized parrot with red plumage and a purple patch on the nape. This bird lives in the tropical forests of Indonesia and feeds on flower nectar.
The purple-capped lory differs from other parrots with its brush-like tongue and a purple patch on the nape. It is important for the forest because it transfers pollen between flowers and helps plants reproduce.
