Complete mitochondrial genome of bronze-winged parrot (Pionus chalcopterus chalcopterus, Psittaciformes) [PDF]
Medium-sized neotropical parrots from Pionus genus are represented by at least eight species. However, their taxonomy should be revised because some external morphological characters together with genetic data recognize 19 taxa.
