Wikipedia Abstract

The Cabanis's tanager or azure-rumped tanager (Tangara cabanisi) is a Middle American bird of the family Thraupidae. It is a local resident in humid broadleaf forests and adjacent plantations of the Pacific slope of western Guatemala and southern Chiapas, Mexico. It has been reported at elevations of 850–1,900 m (2,790–6,230 ft). This species was named in honour of Jean Cabanis. Its closest relative appears to be the similarly-pattered grey-and-gold tanager.
