The Red-breasted pygmy parrot (Micropsitta bruijnii), is a species of parrot in the Psittaculidae family. Its natural habitat is the boreal forests, subtropical or tropical dry forests, and subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests of Indonesia, Papua New Guinea and Solomon Islands. The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is reported to be common to uncommon due to deforestation and habitat lost on this limited range. The specific name bruijnii commemorates the Dutch plume merchant Antonie Augustus Bruijn.
