Cockatoos are parrots, and parrots belong to the phlylum Chordata and class Aves.

They are generally known as psittacines and are separated into 86 genera, which make up the order Psittaciformes.These are then divided into three families:

  • Psittacidae
  • Cacatuidae (cockatoos)
  • Strigopidae (New Zealand parrots)'

There are over 40 species of cockatoos, and each of these has its own scientific name. Examples are:

  • Sulphur crested cockatoo - Cacatua galerita
  • Little corella - Cacatua tenutrostis
  • Galah - Eolophus roseicapillus
  • White cockatoo - Cacatua alba
  • Cockatiel - Nymphicis hollandicus
