XENOPSARIS Xenopsaris albinucha
Closely-related to the Becards, and indeed often mistaken for one, the Xenopsaris is found mainly in the Chaco where it is an uncommon inhabitant of waterside habitats with dense surrounding vegetation. Despite the fact that this is the only Xenopsaris, it sometimes goes by the long-winded name of White-naped Xenopsaris.
