Red Lory © lesoiseauxdufaucigny.centerblog.net

Various populations have been awarded separate subspecies, on basis of purported size differences. However, variability within these populations, or evidence of clines, suggests size cannot be used as a subspecific character. "Eos goodfellowi" seems likely to represent immature of present species introduced to Obi.

Proposed subspecies bernsteini and rothschildi invalid, as variation is clinal.

The following 4 subspecies are recognised:

• bornea (Linnaeus, 1758)   -  Southern Moluccas and Kai Islands. Considered by some authors to be a distinct species, Red Lory (Eos goodfellowi).
• rothschildi Stresemann, 1912   -  Ambon, Haruku, Saparua, Seram Laut, Watubela, Tayandu and Kai Is.
• bernsteini (Rosenberg, 1863)   -  Buru (southern Moluccas).
• cyanonotha (Vieillot, 1818)   -  Eastern Botswana to southern Zimbabwe, Mozambique and South Africa.
