Abbott's starling (Arizelopsar femoralis ) is a species of starling in the family Sturnidae . It is found in Kenya and Tanzania . Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests . It is threatened by habitat loss , and its population is estimated at 2500–9999.[2] This species, at 16 to 18 cm (6.3 to 7.1 in ) long, is the smallest species of starling.[3] It is in the monotypic genus Arizelopsar .
The name of the species commemorates William Louis Abbott (1860-1936), an American naturalist and collector, who studied the wildlife of the Indo-Malayan region.
The Abbott's starling feeds on insects and fruit, including the fruit of Cornus volkensii .[4]
