The burnished-buff tanager (''Tangara cayana''), also known as the rufous-crowned tanager, is a common South American species of bird in the family Thraupidae. It is found in the northern Guianas, most of Venezuela and east-central Colombia; also near the Amazon River outlet in Brazil, as well as most of the east of that country, Paraguay and northeast Argentina. It also occurs very locally in Bolivia and Peru. It can be seen in virtually any semi-open habitat with trees, including human-altered habitats such as gardens, plantations and parks. There are several subspecies of the burnished-buff tanager, them falling into two main groups: The northern and western ''cayana'' group, and the southern and eastern ''flava'' group (the subspecies ''huberi'' from Marajó Island is intermediate between the two main groups). Males of the ''cayana'' group have an orange-rufous crown, black mask, and cream underparts distinctly tinged blue on the throat and chest. Males of the ''flava'' group have an orange-buff crown, and buff underparts with a black patch extending from the mask, over the throat and central chest, to the mid-belly. Males of both groups have turquoise wings and tail. Females are duller than the males, and have black restricted to a poorly demarcated "shadow" of a mask. It is a generally common, and usually seen singly or in pairs. As all tanagers, it is a largely frugivorous species, being particularly fond of the fruits of the native ''Cecropia'' and Brazilian pepper as well as that of introduced Magnoliaceae such as ''Michelia champaca''.〔()〕 ==References== ==External links== *(Burnished-buff Tanager videos ) on the Internet Bird Collection *(Burnished-buff Tanager photo gallery ) VIREO (Photo-High Res-(male)(golden-yellow crown) ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Burnished-buff tanager」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
