Port Lincoln Parrot- Barnardius zonarius

The Australian ringneck is a parrot native to Australia. Except for extreme tropical and highland areas, the species has adapted to all conditions. Treatments of genus "Barnardius" have previously recognised two species, the Port Lincoln parrot and the mallee ringneck, but due to these readily interbreeding at the contact zone they are usually regarded as a single species "B. zonarius" with subspecific descriptions.
