''Psephotus'' is a genus of five species of Australian parakeets. All species show considerable sexual dimorphism. The genus is highly likely to be polyphyletic; a molecular study analysing nuclear and mitochondrial DNA found that the red-rumped parrot was an early offshoot in a clade of several genera of broad-tailed parrot, with the other species nested deeply within. ==Systematics== Subgenus ''Psephotus'': * Red-rumped parrot, ''Psephotus haematonotus'' * Mulga parrot, ''Psephotus varius'' Subgenus ''Psephotellus'': * Hooded parrot, ''Psephotus dissimilis'' * Golden-shouldered parrot, ''Psephotus chrysopterygius'' * †Paradise parrot, ''Psephotus pulcherrimus'' Subgenus Psephotellus along with the Mulga parrot is now thought to be a separate genus according to BirdLife International and IUCN 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Psephotus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
