The genus formerly included twelve additional species: pygmy lorikeet ("Charminetta wilhelminae"), red-fronted lorikeet ("Hypocharmosyna rubronotata"), red-flanked lorikeet ("Hypocharmosyna placentis"), blue-fronted lorikeet ("Charmosynopsis toxopei"), fairy lorikeet ("Charmosynopsis pulchella"), striated lorikeet ("Synorhacma multistriata"), duchess lorikeet ("Charmosynoides margarethae"), Meek's lorikeet ("Vini meeki"), red-chinned lorikeet ("Vini rubrigularis"), palm lorikeet ("Vini palmarum"), red-throated lorikeet ("Vini amabilis"), and New Caledonian lorikeet ("Vini diadema"). These were moved to other genera based on the results of a molecular phylogenetic study of the lorikeets published in 2020.
