Ara araurana x Ara chloropterus
The Harlequin Macaws are a cross between a Blue and Gold Macaw and a Green-winged Macaw which makes for a very affectionate, energetic, and captivating youngster. Both parents of the Harlequin Macaw also contribute to the striking colors of their offspring, though the father's have the dominant gene and this will influence their final appearance.

Really? I thought it was Ara ararauna x ambigua (Maybe just because it has green hehe) Thanks for the info...
It would be Ara ararauna x chloroptera
Thaks Carolina, and just to know is Ara araurana or Ara ambigua?
Yes, it is an hybrid macaw. Harlequin macaw is what people call that mixture.
