🦜Budgerigar
La Perruche ondulée (Melopsittacus undulatus) est une espèce d'oiseaux australiens de la famille des Psittaculidae (communément appelés Perruches et Perroquets typiques). Il s'agit de la seule espèce du genre Melopsittacus et de la tribu des Melopsittacini. Son nom est dû au fait qu'elle a plusieurs ondulations autour de son corps mais certaines perruches peuvent en avoir de très fines ou ne pas en avoir du tout. Cet oiseau vit dans toutes les régions arides et semi-arides de l'Australie. Elle s'adapte parfaitement aux climats européens. Le nom du genre, Melopsittacus, vient du grec et signifie « mélodieux perroquet ».
