Chlorothraupis is a genus of bird in the family Cardinalidae. It was long considered to be a member of the tanager family (Thraupidae), as their common names suggest, but this is false.[1] They are close relatives of the genus Habia, the "ant-tanagers".
Species
The genus contains the following four species:[2]
