Characterization of Mauritius parakeet (Psittacula eques) microsatellite loci and their cross‐utility in other parrots (Psittacidae, Aves) [PDF]
Molecular Ecology Resources, 2009 We characterized 21 polymorphic microsatellite loci in the endangered Mauritius parakeet (Psittacula eques). Loci were isolated from a Mauritius parakeet genomic library that had been enriched separately for eight different repeat motifs.

Sex and Age Effects on Monk Parakeet Home-Range Variation in the Urban Habitat [PDF]
Diversity, 2021 Home-range size is a key aspect of space-use, and variation in home-range size and structure may have profound consequences for the potential impact of damage and control strategies for invasive species.

, 2016 Since their introduction to the United States in the 1960s, monk parakeets (Myiopsittamonachus) have thrived. Monk parakeets often construct nests on man-made structures, such as electric utility facilities and cell phone towers. Monk parakeets are non-native and not protected by the Federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act.
