Bald Parrot
The bald parrot (''Pyrilia aurantiocephala'') or orange-headed parrot is a species of parrot in the family Psittacidae. It is endemic to the east-central Amazon of Brazil. Its natural habitat is tropical moist lowland forests. It is considered near threatened by BirdLife International (and consequently IUCN) due to the widespread deforestation of the Amazon. Taxonomy This parrot was initially believed to be a juvenile of the vulturine parrot due to the orange coloration of its bald head as opposed to the black of the vulturine. However, when it was discovered that the individuals were sexually mature, they were described as a new species. In reality, juveniles of both species have feathered, greenish heads quite unlike those of the adults. It was formerly placed in the genus '' Pionopsitta'', which is now monotypic. Discovery In 1999, Brazilian researchers set out to the Amazon rainforest to find specimens of the small green parrot. Subsequently, many of the researchers found sexu ...

Saffron-headed Parrot
The saffron-headed parrot (''Pyrilia pyrilia'') is a species of parrot in the family Psittacidae. It was previously placed in the genus '' Pionopsitta'', but moved out, as it is not as close to the type species ''Pionopsitta pileata'' as it was believed. It was briefly placed in ''Gypopsitta'', but this is a junior synonym of ''Pyrilia'' and thus the saffron-headed parrot is now placed in the latter genus. It is found in Colombia, Panama, Venezuela, and possibly Ecuador. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It has some tolerance to habitat alteration, depending on woodland but not being restricted to primary forest .Laverde-R., Oscar; Stiles, F. Gary; & Múnera-R., Claudia. (2005).
