Illustration of the Martinique, or orange-bellied, macaw (Ara martinicus), a hypothetical extinct species of macaw which may have been endemic to the Lesser Antillean island of Martinique, in the eastern Caribbean Sea. It was scientifically named by Walter Rothschild in 1905, based on a 1630s description of blue and orange-yellow macaws by Jacques Bouton. Hypothetical 1907 illustration by John Gerrard Keulemans based on Bouton's description. From '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' by Baron, Lionel Walter Rothschild, published in 1907.
