Summary[edit]

English: Newton's Parakeet (Psittacula exsul). An illustration by J.G. Keulemans in the book Extinct Birds by Walter Rothschild, published 1907. It was a parrot endemic to the forests of the island of Rodrigues, a dependency of Mauritius, in the Indian Ocean.
Français : La Perruche de Newton (Psittacula exsul) était une petite espèce de Psittacidae aujourd'hui disparue endémique des forêts de l'île Rodrigues.
Date
Source Extinct Birds: an attempt to unite in one volume a short account of those birds which have become extinct in historical times : that is, within the last six or seven hundred years : to which are added a few which still exist, but are on the verge of extinction. It included several birds without the advantage of physical remains, and so may be entirely hypothetical. By Lionel Walter Rothschild, 2nd Baron Rothschild (8 February 1868 – 27 August 1937).
