Reischek's parakeet (''Cyanoramphus hochstetteri'') is a small green parrot confined to 21 km2 Antipodes Island, one of New Zealand’s subantarctic islands, which it shares with a congener, the larger Antipodes parakeet. ==Taxonomy== The common name commemorates pioneering naturalist and collector Andreas Reischek, who collected specimens of the parrot in 1888 and who named it ''Platycercus hochstetteri'' for the son of his friend, Austrian geologist Ferdinand von Hochstetter, who made a geological survey of New Zealand.〔Reischek, A. (1888). Notes on the Islands to the South of New Zealand. ''Transactions and Proceedings of the New Zealand Institute'' 21: 378-389.()〕 Reischek’s parakeet was previously considered to be a subspecies of the red-crowned parakeet ''C. novaezelandiae'', which it resembles in appearance, but was later lumped with the Macquarie parakeet from Macquarie Island in a 2001 paper by Wee Ming Boon and others following an examination of the molecular systematics of the genus which found that many of the red-crowned parakeet subspecies should be elevated to full species.〔Boon, Wee Ming; Kearvell, Jonathan C.; Daugherty, Charles H.; & Chambers, Geoffrey K. (2001). Molecular systematics and conservation of kakariki (''Cyanoramphus spp.''). ''Science for Conservation'' 176. Dept of Conservation:Wellington, New Zealand. ISBN 0-478-22031-6〕 However, subsequently the provenance of Boon ''et al.''’s supposed Macquarie Island material was shown to be mistaken, originating from the Antipodes Islands instead.〔Scofield, R. Paul. (2005). The supposed Macquarie Parakeet in the collection of Canterbury Museum. ''Notornis'' 52(2): 117-120〕〔Chambers, Geoffrey K.; & Boon, Wee Ming. (2005). Molecular systematics of Macquarie Island and Reischek's parakeets. ''Notornis'' 52 (4): 249–250.()〕
