Hispaniolan highland-tanager
The white-winged warbler (Xenoligea montana ), also called the Hispaniolan highland-tanager, is a species of bird classified in the family Phaenicophilidae. It is the only member of the genus Xenoligea, and is endemic to the Caribbean island of Hispaniola (split between Haiti and the Dominican Republic).
The bird is 13–14 cm (5 in) with a long tail and robust beak. The upper back and rump are olive green. The head is dark grey and the tail and wings are blackish. The eyes have a partial white eye-ring and a white stripe going down towards the beak. The underparts are white, turning to grey on the flanks.
Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forest and subtropical or tropical high-altitude shrubland, usually at altitudes above 1,300 m (4265 ft), though it is sometimes found between 800 m and 2000 m.
It feeds both on fruits and insects, foraging in the underbrush and all the way up to the forest canopy. It frequently joins mixed foraging flocks of other warblers.
