| Name | Penelopoides manillae subnigra, the polillo tarictic hornbill, tariktik |
| Distribution | Polillo and Patnanungan (the species is a Philippine endemic) |
| Habitat | Forest and forest edge |
| Remarks | This Polillo subspecies with its unmistakable resonating call is today a flagship species for Polillo. While residents recall 'tarictic' recipes, the persecution of this charismatic bird, is today largely history, it has certainly benefited from legislation against hunting in the Municipality of Polillo. It is broadly distributed across both Polillo Island and Patnanungan. |
