Sittace flaviventris Wagler, 1832 was the name given to Azara's No. 276 "Maracaná cabeza y encuentro roxos", but since then the identity of the species has remained a mystery. Based on a tail-less domestic individual, it has most often been attributed to an aberrant Aratinga parakeet, and is currently considered a doubtful taxon. In this note the identity of "Azara's Parakeet" is confirmed as Red-spectacled Amazon Amazona pretrei (Temminck, 1830), a species that still occurs today in the region from where Azara described it. Sittace flaviventris is thus a junior synonym of Amazona pretrei.
1832年,瓦格勒将阿扎拉的第276号“马拉卡纳红头绿身鹦鹉”命名为黄腹锥尾鹦鹉(Sittace flaviventris),但从那时起,该物种的身份一直成谜。基于一只无尾的家养个体,它最常被归为一只异常的阿氏鹦鹉属鹦鹉,目前被视为一个存疑分类单元。在本记录中,“阿扎拉鹦鹉”的身份被确认为红眼镜亚马逊鹦鹉(Amazona pretrei)(坦明克,1830年),这一物种如今仍出现在阿扎拉描述它的那个地区。因此,黄腹锥尾鹦鹉是红眼镜亚马逊鹦鹉的次异名。
