The three-genus treatment as 1) Red-rumped Parrot Psephotus haematonotus; Mulga Parrot Psephotus varius, Hooded Parrot Psephotus dissimilis, Golden-shouldered Parrot Psephotus chrysopterygius, and Paradise Parrot Psephotus pulcherrimus; 2) Red-capped Parrot Purpureicephalus spurius; and 3) Greater Bluebonnet Northiella haematogaster; Naretha Bluebonnet Northiella narethae is untenable based on phylogenetic analyses (Irestedt et al. 2019, Smith et al. 2022). The amount of morphological variation encompassed by an expanded Psephotus is deemed excessive and hence a four-genus treatment is adopted, with four of the species in Psephotus moved to Psephotellus, as follows: Psephotellus varius, Psephotellus dissimilis, Psephotellus chrysopterygius, and Psephotellus pulcherrimus.

I just reverted it back to Mulga parrot
But why was the common name changed?
