DescriptionRothschild based it on a description which a Mr. Hill had sent to Philip Henry Gosse: {{Quotation|Head red; neck, shoulders, and underparts of a light and lively green; the greater wing coverts and quills, blue; and the tail scarlet and blue on the upper surface, with the under plumage, both of wings and tail, a mass of intense orange yellow. The specimen here described was procured in the mountains ofTrelawny and St. Anne's by Mr. White, proprietor of the Oxford estate.[2]}} The Ara erythrocephala could have been found in the mountains of Trelawney and St. Anne’s parishes, Jamaica.[3] It was described to have been found in the mountains, and presumably in forest as well.[4] ExtinctionIt is believed that the main reason for the macaw's extinction was their apathetic reactions towards gunshots and arrows. [5] The macaw is extinct,[4] and it is conjectured to have been hunted to extinction in the early 19th century.[6] It was a close relative of the Cuban and Dominican macaws.[6] Its existence is considered dubious today.[7] References1. ^BirdLife International 2012.
