The white-shouldered tanager (Tachyphonus luctuosus) is a medium-sized passerine bird. This tanager is a resident breeder from Honduras to Panama, South America south to Ecuador and southern Brazil, and on Trinidad. White-shouldered tanagers are 14 cm long and weigh 14 g. They are long-tailed and with a mostly black stout pointed bill. The adult male is glossy black, apart from white underwing coverts and a conspicuous white shoulder patch. The shoulder patch is the most obvious difference from the similar but larger white-lined tanager, in which the smaller white area is rarely visible except in flight. Order: Passeriformes, Family: Thraupidae, Genus: Tachyphonus, Species: Tachyphonus luctuosus ((d’Orbigny and Lafresnaye), 1837).
