This beautiful little parroquet is by no means common in Costa 

 Rica, while the smallness of its size causes it to be easily overlooked. 

 With the exception of one record (Angostura), all the birds taken

 go about in small flocks in the forest, which at these altitudes is very 

 heavy, thus easily escaping observation as they sit in the tree-tops.

 slope, from Chiriqui to Nicaragua, but does not usually go higher than 

 about 1,000 feet, although a few are to be found up to 2,000 feet in 

 some localities. They are nearly always seen in flocks of from half a
