Black-throated Saltator (Saltatricula atricollis)
About the Black-throated Saltator
The black-throated saltator (Saltatricula atricollis) is a species of bird in the family Thraupidae, the tanagers and allies. It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, and Paraguay. The black-throated saltator was formally described in 1817 with the binomial Saltator atricollis. Most taxonomic systems had assigned it to its current genus Saltatricula by the 2020s. However, as of late 2025 BirdLife International's Handbook of the Birds of the World (HBW) retains it in Saltator. All of the systems agree that the species is monotypic.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 153 recordings for this species: 6 CC BY-NC-SA. None of them permits commercial use, so there is no player here — the page is kept as a profile so the bird is not missing from the guide.
As soon as someone uploads a freely licensed recording, we mirror it and the player appears here.
