Wikipedia description:
The genus Polytelis (literally translates into 'magnificent') of the family Psittaculidae consists of three species long-tailed parrot endemic to Australia. Traditionally, it was included in the Australian broad-tailed parrots (tribe Platycercini), but molecular studies place the genus within the Polytelini. A 2017 molecular study placed the regent parrot as an early offshoot to the genus Asprosmictus and not as closely related to the other two species.
