It is found along both banks of the Amazon river and other major Amazonian rivers in Brazil, Colombia, Bolivia, Ecuador and Peru. As suggested by its range, it is associated with the specific forest and woodland types growing near major rivers, although it also extends into the coastal deltas of French Guiana and Amapá, Brazil. The closest relative is the yellow-faced parrot (Alipiopsitta xanthops) and the members of the genus Pionus.[2][3] DescriptionIt has a total length of about {{convert|24|cm|in|frac=4|abbr=on}}. It is overall green with a large dark bill (large even for a parrot) and, as suggested by its name, a very short tail. Adults show a small maroon-red spot on the shoulder and at the base of the outer tail-feathers, but typically neither are easy to see. ConservationThe species is considered safe at the moment.[4] References1. ^{{IUCN|id=22686172 |title=Graydidascalus brachyurus |assessor=BirdLife International |assessor-link=BirdLife International |version=2013.2 |year=2012 |accessdate=26 November 2013}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q1262737}}{{DEFAULTSORT:parrot, short-tailed}}{{parrot-stub}}2. ^Duarte JMB and Caparroz R (1995) Cytotaxonomic analysis of Brazilian species of the genus Amazona (Psittacidae, Aves) and confirmation of the genus Salvatoria (Ribeiro, 1920).
