The Pacific parrotlet (''Forpus coelestis''), also known as Lesson's parrotlet or the celestial parrotlet, is a species of small parrot in the Psittacidae family, native to Ecuador and Peru. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests, subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical dry shrubland, and heavily degraded former forest. Parrotlets are the second smallest group of all parrots. Pacific parrotlets are between 4½ to 5½ inches long. They come from the South American countries of Peru and Ecuador. There are seven species of parrotlets in the genus ''Forpus''. Only three of these species are kept as pets. Of these, the Pacific parrotlet is the most common. ==Description==
The Pacific parrotlets have olive green and grey bodies and lighter blue streaking back from their eyes. It is a dimorphic species. The males have a striking cobalt rump with blue patches on their wings and lighter yellowish green faces. Females are mostly green with much less brightly colored blue patches behind the eyes and no cobalt rump or blue in their wings. These dimorphic color variations are true of most of the color mutations as well. They are from 10 cm - 14 cm long.
