| Popis: | Palaeornis Vigors Type species: Psittacus eupatria Linnaeus fixed here according to Art. 70.3 of the Code (ICZN 1999), misidentified in the original description by Vigors as Psittacus alexandri Linnaeus. Morphology/distribution: red shoulder patch; large size, long tail, very large bill; predominantly green colour; sexual dimorphism; males with broad neck collar and green-bluish head pattern, females without collar. Distribution: S Asia, Seychelles. This genus includes large species of the Psittacula s.l. clade and appears to be closely related to the morphologically similar Alexandrinus parakeets. The most basal taxon within this clade, according to the dataset used, is the extinct † P. wardi E. Newton from the Seychelles. The next taxon that splits off is P. e. magnirostris Ball from the Andaman Islands. The taxon P. e. siamensis Kloss from SE Asia is sister to P. eupatria from the southern Indian subcontinent.
