The buff-faced pygmy parrot (''Micropsitta pusio'') is a very small green parrot found in subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests in West Papua, Indonesia and Papua New Guinea. ==Taxonomy== The species was first described as ''Nasiterna pusio'' by English naturalist Philip Lutley Sclater in 1866. The genus name ''Micropsitta'' is derived from the Greek ''mikros'' meaning small and ''psitta'' for parrot. The specific name is the Latin ''pũsǐõ'', which means "little boy". Four subspecies have been described, although their status has been questioned. The type subspecies, ''M. p. pusio'', occurs on the Bismarck Archipelago and southeastern New Guinea; birds of Fergusson Island in the D'Entrecasteaux Archipelago have blue-tinged throats and less distinct markings and are described as ''M. p. harterti''; birds of Misima and Tagula Islands in the Louisiade Archipelago are slightly larger and have more yellowish underparts and are described as subspecies ''M. p. stresemanni''; and those that range in western New Guinea from Cenderawasih Bay to the Kumusi River have darker plumage overall and are named subspecies ''M. p. beccarii''.〔
