Conuropsis carolinensis

Description

CAROLINA PARAKEET Conuropsis carolinensis

Psittacus carolinensis Linnaeus, 1758

MZUT AV11205; mount; unsexed adult; southern USA, no date; from Salvin in 1892, formerly in Elliott Coues’ private collection.

Remarks.—During his stay at the British Museum (Natural History), London, to catalogue their parrots, Tommaso Salvadori received a personal gift from Osbert Salvin (1835–95) of a C. carolinensis that originally formed part of the Elliott Coues collection. Subsequently, Salvadori donated it to MZUT.
