The Yariguies Brush-finch (Atlapetes latinuchus yariguierum) is a subspecies of the Yellow-breasted Brush-finch, discovered in 2004 in Colombia. The feathers of the breast, abdomen, and throat are yellow; those of the coverts, primaries, secondaries, scapulars, auriculars, lores, and tail are black; the crown feathers are russet. It is unique among its conspecifics because it has a jet black back and wing with no white markings. One of the type specimens was photographed and a DNA sample taken, and subsequently the bird was released as researchers wanted to confirm that the new taxon is not endangered before killing a number individuals as type material. Its habitat is the remote cloud rainforest in the northern Colombia. The pristine area where the birds live is one of the last remaining such Andean cloud forests in the country.
