The Pearly Parakeet is a parrot of north-central Brazil. Groups of up to about ten may gather at good food sources.
Adults of subspecies lepida have a variably broad blue collar on the hindneck and pale-and-dark barring on the brown breast.
Fruit is among its few documented wild foods. It rests hidden in the upper canopy, calls conspicuously in flight, and feeds in small flocks at good food sources.
