The first photo of an Opal-rumped Tanager was made by Carla Out near the Voltzberg in November 2007. Then two pictures of birds in the birdcage of mr. Luchmun, Paramaribo (R.Ribot). There the blue on the head and the violet on the breast are more clearly visble. In Suriname it is an uncommon tanager of the forest, living in groups in the top of the trees.
Each small square indicates the observation of at least one (group) of these birds, the medium ones at least 4 observations on different days and the largest ones 10 or more. The color of each square indicates: blue for coastal area, yellow for savanna and red for rainforest. Uncommon in savanna (yellow) and rare in the rainforest (red).
