Chiasmalges Gaud and Atyeo, 1967
The taxon Chiasmalges was originally established as a genus ( Gaud and Atyeo 1967), but subsequently these authors ( Gaud and Atyeo 1996) proposed to treat it as a subgenus of the genus Mesalgoides Gaud and Atyeo, 1967 . However, Pérez and Ramirez (1996) continued to consider Chiasmalges as a genus. According to recent partial generic revision of the subfamily Pandalurinae ( Mironov 2004) , the generic rank of Chiasmalges is strongly supported. The genus Chiasmalges is restricted to parrots and has included up to now only three described species: Chiasmalges annahofmannae Pérez and Ramirez, 1996 , Ch. hirsutus (Trouessart, 1899) and Ch. polyplectrus Gaud and Atyeo, 1967 .
