Buthraupis
Buthraupis is a genus of South American birds in the tanager family. The two species are found in highland forest, woodland and shrub in the Andes and Santa Marta Mountains. They are among the largest tanagers, and both have a mainly yellow, blue and black plumage. As originally defined, the genus was polyphyletic, leading to two other species being moved to Cnemathraupis.[1]
