Here's a photo of the Moustached (Red-breasted) Parakeet. Like many parrots, it has more than one English name. "Moustached" is used by Forshaw and by Epps, but Clements and Sibley-Monroe call it "Red-breasted". As the scientific name, Psittacula alexandri, indicates, it is related to the Rose-ringed Parakeet (Psittacula krameri).

The black bill indicates it is a female.
