Crimson, Yellow or Adelaide Rosella
Platycercus [elegans, flaveolus or adelaidae] (= Platycercus elegans) (Gmelin, JF 1788)
The crimson rosella is a parrot native to eastern and south eastern Australia which has been introduced to New Zealand and Norfolk Island. It is commonly found in, but not restricted to, mountain forests and gardens. The species as it now stands has subsumed two former separate species, the yellow rosella and the Adelaide rosella. Molecular studies show one of the three red-coloured races, P. e. nigrescens, is genetically more distinct. Source: Wikipedia
