The cliff parakeet (Myiopsitta luchsi ) is a small species of parrot in the family Psittacidae. It occurs in Andean valleys of central Bolivia between 1,000/1,300 and 3,000 metres above sea level, roughly from southeastern La Paz to the northern Chuquisaca department. Many taxonomic authorities (including the American Ornithological Society), consider it to be a subspecies of the monk parakeet, while others consider it distinct.
It is smaller in size, with a clearer plumage pattern, no scalloping on the breast, underparts brighter yellow, an underwing lighter. The base of the maxilla is dark.
