Taiwan Hwamei
Garrulax taewanus
Lightly streaked brown songbird with starkly pale eyes found in edge habitat and scrubby areas in Taiwan. Chinese Hwamei, which has been introduced in Taiwan, has an unstreaked head, dark eyes, and distinctive bluish lines behind the eyes. Hybridization threatens this species’ survival. An accomplished songster, but unlike the Chinese Hwamei, does not mimic other species.

Neumann's Warbler
Hemitesia neumanni
Unusual short-tailed and big-headed warbler. The most obvious marks are the bold black, white, and olive-green stripes on the head. Found in the understory of middle-elevation montane forest, usually in thick, wet areas, as along streams. Most often detected by voice: a sequence of three whistles, “tseew tsee-tyout.” Most similar to Green Hylia, but much shorter-tailed.
Rose-bellied Bunting
Passerina rositae
Beautiful bunting found very locally in foothills on Pacific slope of southern Mexico; endemic. Occurs in brushy woodland and edge, often in canyons with permanent water. Found singly or in small groups feeding mainly in seeding grasses and at all levels in fruiting trees and bushes. Male unmistakable: electric blue and rose-pink with a broken white eyering. Female much drabber but has broken white eyering and variable pink blush to underparts.
Dusky Twinspot
Euschistospiza cinereovinacea
Unusual, very dark twinspot with small and faint “twin spots” on the belly. The red rump is conspicuous in flight. Found in grassy areas along forest edge and in lush cultivation. Not very vocal, but gives quiet twitters and a “tsip” call. Similar in size and overall coloration to Dusky Crimsonwing, but shows red on the flanks and none on the face.
