Sixty-two species of birds have been recorded in Wallis and Futuna, a French overseas collectivity in Polynesia in the Pacific Ocean. It consists of three main islands, Wallis (Uvea), Futuna, and Alofi Island, along with several islets. Of the sixty-two bird species of the territory, five were introduced by humans. No species are endemic to the islands, but there are endemic subspecies of the collared kingfisher, the Polynesian triller (example pictured), the Fiji shrikebill, and the Polynesian starling. The shy ground dove has been extirpated from the islands, while the blue-crowned lorikeet is locally extinct on Uvea. Ducula david, an extinct species of imperial pigeon, was described from subfossil remains on the islands and is thought to have been widespread before the arrival of humans. (Full list...)
