Spix's macaw (Cyanopsitta spixii), also known as the little blue macaw, is a macaw species that was endemic to Brazil. It is a member of tribe Arini in the subfamily Arinae ( Neotropical parrots ), part of the family Psittacidae (the true parrots).
The blue-winged macaw is sometimes kept by humans as an aviary bird or companion parrot.

As of 2025, there are 1 million blue and gold macaws living in captivity worldwide, one of the highest population of any large parrot in captivity, such is the popularity of this bird.
