Ref:Amazons, What else?
Marion,
there is the species amazona ochrocephala (Yellow Fronted/Headed).
One subspecies is amazona ochrocephala auropalliata (Yellow Nape).
Here's a list:
auropalliata:     Bend of wing GREEN; lower Beak dark like Yellow
                  Fronted (A. ochropcephala ochrocephala from
                  Suriname).
parvipes:         smaller, bend of wing RED, beak paler and less
                  heavily pigmented.
hondurensis:      always yellow front, bend of wing RED, beak greyly
                  to light horn coloured, endemic only in Sula
                  Valley, Honduras.
caribae:          lower beak like hondurensis, but endemic only Islas
                  de la Bahia.
intermediate:     ???
I wrote an article about that some time ago. If you can read
German, tell me, I'll post by Netmail. I would like to get some
photos (dias) from Yellow Nape Amazons, and more informations
about Voren's intermediate form.
