Saint Croix Macaw

The St. Croix Macaw (Ara autocthones ) is a little known extinct macaw species from the island of Saint Croix, which belongs to the U.S. Virgin Islands, a group of islands in the Lesser Antilles in the Caribbean. He is known only by a subfossil left tibiotarsus, the ornithologist Alexander Wetmore 1937 at Concordia, South West Cape, Saint Croix found in middens of Arawak or Carib and described.

Its extinction is probably due to habitat destruction and hunting. There are but so far still no evidence.
