Parrots (Psittacidae) - HBW 4
Crimson-bellied Parakeet (Pyrrhura perlata)
French: Conure à ventre rouge
German: Rotbauchsittich
Spanish: Cotorra Ventrirroja
Other common names: Crimson-bellied Conure
Taxonomy: Aratinga perlatus Spix, 1824, banks of the Amazon.
Forms a parapatric species pair with P. lepida, with which sometimes considered conspecific. Complicated situation in which types of name perlata have proved to be immatures of the form long known as P. rhodogaster, which name thus becomes a junior synonym of P. perlata; as a consequence, the form (Pearly Parakeet) until now known as P. perlata assumes its own next oldest name, P. lepida. Monotypic.
Distribution: Brazil from W Pará and E Amazonas S to CW Mato Grosso, and into N Bolivia.
