	Rosella - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Rosellas are native to Australia and some nearby islands, where they inhabit forests, woodlands, farmlands, and suburban parks and gardens.
		However, the intra-lineage relationships are not clear at all in several cases, with for example the Crimson, Yellow and Adelaide Rosellas having been considered everything between three distinct species and a single clinal population.
		What is generally accepted is that the Western Rosella is most distantly related to all other forms, and that the blue-cheeked and the white-cheeked taxa form monophyletic lineages.
