This small parakeet occurs in southeastern Ecuador and northwestern Peru. It uses dry woodland and is also recorded on farmland where large trees remain.
Adults are yellow-green, with blue on the crown and a pale gray face. Blue flight feathers and orange-red underwing coverts are also visible.
It mainly uses dry deciduous woodland. Accounts also record it in secondary forest and on farmland with large trees, where it nests in tree cavities or arboreal termite nests.
