Introduction: The relationships within the Pyrrhura species complex are partly unresolved. In this study, a comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of the Pyrrhura picta-leucotis complex was carried out, covering all species except P. subandina. Material and Methods: We made a morphological analysis of 745 preserved specimens of all the taxa in different museums. Nucleotide sequences of the mitochondrial cytochrome gene were generated and used to reconstruct a molecular phylogeny of Pyrrhura. Results and Discussion: Our results show that the complex is divided into 6 main groups comprising 15 species. P. dilutissima, regarded up to now as a subspecies of P. peruviana, acquires species status and three new subspecies are described. We also provide evidence that P. roseifrons is a paraphyletic group, indicating the existence of probably 3 lineages of which 2 deserve species status.

A new species ofFergusonina(Diptera: Fergusoninidae) fly is described from terminal leaf bud galls (TLBGs) from theEucalyptus paucifloraSieb. ex Spreng. (snow gum) species complex from Australia.Fergusonina tasmaniensisNelson sp.n. is the first species from the genusFergusoninato be described from Tasmania and the fourth from this host complex.Fergusonina tasmaniensissp.n. can be distinguished from the other snow gumFergusoninaspecies by differences in adult size, markings on the mesonotum and the male genitalia, and from all other describedFergusoninaby host specificity and differences in adult colouration, setation, genitalia and the morphology of the larval dorsal shield. In a molecular phylogeny of the snow gum-inhabitingFergusoninaspecies,F. tasmaniensissp.n. was resolved as monophyletic, and sister (mean distance = 3.82%) to a clade comprisingF. daviesaeNelson and Yeates andF. omlandiNelson and Yeates (mean interspecific distance = 2.48%).
