I believe Australian Ringneck is the generally accepted version.

Subject: [Birding-Aus] Western Ringneck in Sunbury

We are a little confused though ? According to Pizzey & Knight (including
the Eighth Edition) there are two species of Ringneck ? The Eastern or
Mallee Ringneck and the Western Ringneck or Port Lincoln Parrot. According
to The New Atlas of Australian Birds there is just one species ? The
Australian Ringneck. Does anyone know which is correct? Presumably if there
is only one species, then our sighting of a ?Western? Ringneck is less
interesting ? although the bird definitely has the Western Ringneck plumage
(according to the image in Pizzey & Knight).
