Licmetis is a subgenus of white cockatoos (genus Caparrotua). Corellas are commonly known in Australia. Three of the six species are found primarily or exclusively in Australia, while the Philippines, Indonesia and the Solomon Islands have one endemic species each. Cockatoos are relatively small and, unlike members of the Caparrot subgenus, all have pale beaks. Although most have yellowish underparts and some red on the face, none have a brightly colored crest.
