Pyrrhura
Pyrrhura (Greek Red/Fire Tail) is a genus of parrots in the Arini tribe. They occur in tropical and subtropical South America and southern Central America (Panama and Costa Rica). Most are restricted to humid forest and adjacent habitats, but one species, the blaze-winged parakeet, prefers deciduous or gallery woodland, and another, the Pfrimer's parakeet, is restricted to dry regions. Some species are highly endangered. Depending on the species, the total length range from . All have long, pointed tails, a mainly green plumage, and a relatively narrow, dark greyish to white eye-ring. Many have scaly or  barred chest-patterns and a whitish, pale grey, buff or reddish ear-patch. They typically move around in small, noisy flocks, flying swiftly at or below canopy level. Once settled in a tree they tend to be silent (especially if aware of danger) and difficult to spot. They nest in a tree-crevice. Some species are popular in aviculture, where they are commonly referred to conures instead of parakeets. The taxonomy of some groups, in particular the "Pyrrhura picta" and the "P. leucotis" complexes, has changed significantly in recent years. In late 2008 it was proposed that the members of  the "P. picta" complex from north-eastern Peru (the so-called "group 6" in Joseph, 2002) should be considered a new species, the Amazon red-fronted parakeet, "P. parvifrons". This has yet to receive widespread recognition (e.g., by SACC), and consequently it is not included in the below list.
