Species of bird

The white-bellied parrot (Pionites leucogaster), or white-bellied caique in aviculture, is a species of bird in the subfamily Arinae of the family Psittacidae, the African and New World parrots.[3] It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, and Peru.[4]

The South American Classification Committee of the American Ornithological Society, the International Ornithological Committee, and the Clements taxonomy assign these three subspecies to the white-bellied parrot:[5][3][6]

BirdLife Internationals Handbook of the Birds of the World (HBW) treats all three as separate species, the "black-legged", "yellow-tailed", and "green-thighed" parrots respectively. The three have also been called the "western", "central", and "eastern" white-bellied parrots.[7] Note that the range map is that of the nominate subspecies P. l. leucogaster.
