Ara atwoodiAra vert et jaune dominicainCitationDominican Green-and-yellow Macaw Ara atwoodi is known only from the writings of Atwood in 1791, and was endemic to Dominica. Atwood notes that birds were captured both for food and pets, and presumably this persecution led to their extinction in the late 18th or early 19th century. Taxonomy Clark initially included macaws from Dominica in A. guadeloupensis, but on discovery of Atwood's text, described them as distinct.
On ne le connait que par les écrits de Atwood en 1791. Il était endémique à la Dominique. Atwood notait que les oiseaux capturés l'étaient à des fins d'animal de compagnie ou d'alimentation. Ainsi ils s'éteingnerent probablement à la fin du 18eme ou au debut 19eme.
