Ron Harlan collected near Iquitos in 88/89 and brought back
agassizi and nijsseni. He also borught be what we joking
referred to as "harlani"; they looked like nijsseni, but not quit
the same. Last I heard, they were deemed to be a different
populaiton of nijsseni.
You'd have to call Ron to find out more, I'm fuzzy on the
details; given howeevr how many different color variations
there are on agassizi and cacatuoides, it seems resonable
there might be different populaitons of nijsseni.
