A widespread and common species throughout their large range, the magnificent bird-of-paradise is evaluated as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. They are listed on Appendix II of CITES. DescriptionThe magnificent bird-of-paradise reaches a length of around 26 cm and has an extremely complex plumage. Males have seemingly incandescent yellow wings, an iridescent-green breast shield, blue feet, and an elegant yellow mantle on his neck.
