Collocalia elaphra The Seychelles swiftlet (Aerodramus elaphrus) is a small bird of the swift family.

Breeding takes place all year round at a small number of colonies in caves.

The nest is bracket-shaped and made of strands of lichen and casuarina needles held together by saliva.

The species is classified as Vulnerable by the IUCN due to its small population (2,500 to 3,000 birds) and limited number of breeding sites.

Threats include disturbance, use of insecticides and predation by introduced barn owls and cats.
