BROADBILLS   -   EURYLAIMIDAE

Sapayoa Sapayoa aenigma Playa de Oro, Esmeraldas province, Ecuador. It's a crap photo, but it's such an odd bird I added it anyway. Found in mature, very wet rainforest from eastern Panama to northwest Ecuador, it's taxonomic placement has long been a subject of debate. The most recent research shows that it is actually the only New World member of the Old World broadbills (link to references here). That would be hard to guess based on the fantastically colorful plumage of most of that family.
