Puerto Rican spindalis

The Puerto Rican spindalis (''Spindalis portoricensis'') is a bird endemic to the island of Puerto Rico, where it is commonly known as ''reina mora''. The species is widely distributed throughout the island and is an important part of the Puerto Rican ecosystem because of its help in seed dispersal and plant reproduction. The Puerto Rican spindalis has been proposed as the national bird〔National bird is the accepted/standard expression to refer to the representative bird denominated by a government.

==Taxonomy==

The Puerto Rican spindalis was originally classified as ''Spindalis zena portoricensis'', making it a subspecies of the western spindalis (''Spindalis zena''). In 1997, an article was published which presented an extensive analysis of the genus ''Spindalis''. The report concluded, based on differences in weight, color, pattern, distribution, and voice, that a split of ''S. zena'' was necessary. Four distinct species were identified—''Spindalis dominicensis'', ''Spindalis nigricephala'', ''Spindalis portoricensis'' and ''Spindalis zena''. ''S. zena'' was also subdivided into five subspecies: ''S. z. pretrei'', ''S. z. salvini'', ''S. z. benedicti'', ''S. z. townsendi'' and ''S. z. zena''. Specifically, the difference in vocalization, and morphology, distinguish ''S. portoricensis'' from ''S. dominicensis''.〔
