The Fiji goshawk (Accipiter rufitorques) is a species of bird of prey in the family Accipitridae. It was once considered to be the same species (conspecific) as the brown goshawk of Australia and New Caledonia. It is endemic to Fiji, where it occurs on the larger islands of Viti Levu, Vanua Levu, Taveuni, Kadavu, Gau and Ovalau.[2] It occupies a range of wooded habitats in Fiji, from natural rainforest to coconut plantations and urban gardens and parks.[3]
