The Jamaican euphonia (Euphonia jamaica) is a species of bird in the family Fringillidae. Jamaican euphonias are small and have a varying appearance depending on their gender and age. They are the only species of Euphonia that reside in Jamaica and have received the nickname of “Short-Mouth Bluequit” from Jamaican locals. These birds do not migrate anywhere and can be found throughout the island in wooded areas, shrublands, gardens, orchards, and hilly lowlands.[2]
