Yellow-tailed parrot
The yellow-tailed parrot, also known as the central white-bellied parrot, is one of the four species in the genus Pionites of the family Psittacidae. Pionites leucogaster, Pionites xanthomerius, and Pionites xanthurus were previously lumped as Pionites leucogaster, but recent morphological work suggests the species should be split into three. The IOC World Bird List still considers it to be a subspecies of the green-thighed parrot. The species is rare in captivity in comparison to other taxa of the genus.
