Subandean Parakeet

Pyrrhura subandina

The Subandean parakeet (Pyrrhura subandina), also known as the Sinú parakeet, is a bird in subfamily Arinae of the family Psittacidae, the African and New World parrots.

The International Ornithological Committee (IOC), the South American Classification Committee of the American Ornithological Society, and the Clements taxonomy treat it as a subspecies of the painted parakeet (P. picta).
