The Grey-hooded Parakeet is a relatively small species of parrot found in parts of Argentina and Bolivia. They can be recognized by their green upperparts and their light greyish underparts. They have greenish-yellow flanks and brownish-grey atop the crown.

Grey-hooded Parakeets are gregarious, traveling and feeding in flocks of around 20 individuals. Their diet consists of seeds, fruits, and berries.
