| View Cart ⇗ | Info
“Cariama cristata, the Seriemá, or Crested Screamer, extending from Pernambuco to Paraguay and Matto Grosso, is ochreous-grey above with zig-zag umber markings, and whitish below with brown stripes. Vertical feathers on the lores form a conspicuous crest, while those of the neck and throat are long and loose; interrupted white bands cross the remiges, and the bases and tips of the lateral rectrices. The iris is yellow, the beak and feet are red, the naked orbits greenish. The female is yellower, and exhibits less crest.” A. H. Evans, 1900
