The Olive-headed lorikeet (Trichoglossus euteles) is a small parrot of reduced size but on the other hand, like all lorikeets, displays a splendid livery. At home in the humid tropical forests of the easternmost islands of the Indonesian archipelago, is nowadays present also in city parks and close to urban centres.
