Yes, the title is accurate, rounding out the last nonpasserine group without a list, parrots is here. And my word it was hard to sort out! So many alternate names! As it currently stands, the list contains 111 species plus a generic (unspecified Rainbow Lorikeet.) Cutoff date is 2018 due to longevity of the group.
Important Taxonomy Notes:
I have followed Birds of the World's taxonomy, resulting in the following, all specified where applicable;
Timneh Parrot is lumped with Gray Parrot
Stella's Lorikeet is lumped with Papuan Lorikeet
Rosenberg's/Biak Lorikeet is lumped with Coconut Lorikeet
Rainbow Lorikeet is split into six species, listed individually - Coconut, Swainson's, Red-collared, Marigold, Leaf, and Sunset
Yellow-headed Amazon is split from Yellow-crowned Amazon
Notes on facilities:
Emphasis was placed on rarer species, many common species are likely low but I did not spend as much time looking for Budgies and Cockatiels for example.
Ambassador birds are marked where known for sure, it is not complete.
Parrot Mountain is added, but species were difficult to confirm and several rare species are marked as questionable.
I don't want pet stores with resident birds unless they are decidedly rare per the list; pet stores are otherwise not within the scope of the thread.
Species currently unlisted that are likely around:
Blue-eyed Cockatoo
Red-vented/Philippine Cockatoo
Chattering Lory
Iris Lorikeet
Black-cheeked Lovebird - 2020 Parrot Tag says 29, where are they? I see SDZSP and Cleveland as at least historical holders but cannot find recent confirmations for anywhere.
White-winged/Canary-winged Parakeet
Yellow-chevroned Parakeet
Northern/Southern Festive Amazons
Northern/Southern Mealy Amazons
Parrotlets - Parrot Mountain supposedly has, but species unclear
Nanday Parakeet/Conure
Mitred Parakeet/Conure
Red-masked Parakeet/Conure
P.S. to @Coelacanth18, sorry for giving all your competitors a cheat sheet for "Polly Wants 20"!
