St. Lucia Black Finch

Melanospiza richardsoni

Endangered

The St. Lucia Black Finch is a seed-eating tanager ally of grassland, scrub, bamboo, or island woodland in Saint Lucia. 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.
