The golden parakeet was listed in 1633 by the Dutch geographer Joannes de Laet in his History of the New World. He gave the local name as Guiarubas. [5] De Laet included the parakeet in the 1640 French translation of his book. [6] The word Guiarubas comes from the Tupi language: Guarajúba means "yellow bird". [7]

All living conure species live in Central and South America. The extinct Conuropsis carolinensis, or Carolina parakeet was an exception.

[2] The bird was also illustrated in a hand-coloured plate engraved by François-Nicolas Martinet in the Planches Enluminées D'Histoire Naturelle which was produced under the supervision of Edme-Louis Daubenton to accompany Buffon's text.
