The Carriker's mountain-tanager (Dubusia carrikeri) is a species of Neotropical bird in the tanager family Thraupidae. Carriker's mountain-tanager is found only in montane forest in Santa Marta, Colombia. [1] The Carriker's mountain-tanager is sometimes regarded as a subspecies of the Buff-breasted mountain tanager but has been distinguished otherwise in 2016 by the IUCN Red List. [2] As of today, its population is in decline due to habitat damage by recreation, pollution, and climate change. [1]
