Taxonomic Comments
Formerly placed in the genus Aratinga. Treated as separate on the basis of genetic data (e.g., Kirchman et al. 2012; summarized in Remsen et al. 2013), which indicate that Psittacara is not closely related to Aratinga but rather is sister to a group of three extralimital genera (Leptosittaca von Berlepsh & Stolzmann 1894, Diopsittaca Ridgway 1912, and Guaruba Lesson 1830) (AOU 2014).
