The Key to Scientific Names
Legend Overview
Introduction
The Green-naped Tanager forms a superspecies with the Spangle-cheeked Tanager (Tangara dowii) of Costa Rica and western Panama, and these two species were formerly considered to be conspecifics. Like the Spangle-cheeked Tanager, this species should prove easily identifiable, especially given that it is confined to a tiny range in the highlands of easternmost Panama, where it is generally considered to be uncommon at elevations between 600 and 1350 m. The Green-naped Tanager is usually found in small groups, and these either travel alone or join mixed-species flocks, especially those containing another regional endemic, the Pirre Bush-Tanager (Chlorospingus inornatus).
