Psittacara

Psittacara is a genus of South and Middle American parakeets in the tribe Arini. Until 2013, all the species were believed to belong to the genus Aratinga. Many of the Psittacara species are kept in aviculture or as companion parrots, where they are commonly known as conures.

Species

 * Green Parakeet (Psittacara holochlorus)
 * Socorro Parakeet (Psittacara brevipes) – formerly a subspecies of the green parakeet
 * Red-throated Parakeet (Psittacara rubritorquis)
 * Pacific Parakeet (Psittacara strenuus)
 * Scarlet-fronted Parakeet (Psittacara wagleri)
 * Cordilleran Parakeet (Psittacara frontatus) – formerly a subspecies of the scarlet-fronted parakeet

Hypothetical species

 * Guadeloupe Parakeet (Psittacara labati)
 * Jean-Baptiste Labat described a population of small parrots living on Guadeloupe, which have been postulated to be a separate species based on little evidence. They were originally named Conurus labati, but no specimens or remains of these parrots exist. Their taxonomy may never be fully elucidated, and so their postulated status as a separate species is hypothetical.
