Araripe Manakin~ Antilophia bokermanni
This little bird is endemic (found nowhere else) to the Chapada do Araripe (the Araripe Plateau) in Ceara, Brazil.  An estimated (less than) 800 individuals remain within a 30-mile stretch of land within the northeast portion of the state of Ceara, along the eastern side of the Araripe Plateau.  It is labelled as critically endangered on the IUCN's Redlist of Endangered Species and remains seriously threatened by deforestation throughout the small region it lives.  To learn more about this fascinating species, read my blog.
