Golden-backed Mountain Tanager

Cnemathraupis aureodorsalis

Near Threatened

The Golden-backed Mountain Tanager is a colorful Neotropical tanager that forages for fruit, insects, nectar, or seeds in forest, scrub, or open woodland in South America. It is mapped as an approximate resident or core native range, with local endemics kept tighter than widespread continental species. Fun fact: tanagers are one of the largest songbird radiations in the Americas, with bills and diets that vary dramatically across habitats.
