Green Oropendola (Psarocolius viridis) [XC521038]
by Mauricio \u00c1lvarez-Rebolledo (Colecci\u00f3n de Sonidos Ambientales - Instituto Humboldt) from PNN Chiribiquete, cu\u00f1ar\u00e9, Colombia (?)
Green Oropendola (Psarocolius viridis) [XC451345]
by Brice de la Croix from Roura, Montagne des Chevaux, French Guiana (begging call)
Subspecies
No subspecies.
Analysis of mitochondrial DNA indicates present species is closer to Amazonian Oropendola (Psarocolius yuracares) than to Crested Oropendola (Psarocolius decumanus). Populations in north-eastern Peru sometimes separated as subspecies flavescens (described from Xeberos, in eastern Peru), but this separation seems unwarranted.
