Both the male and female have black feet and a straight black bill (2) (6). More

The White-necked Jacobin is named after the Jacobin order of European monks, who wore a distinctive cap.

A rare visitor from lower elevations, the male White-necked Jacobin is unmistakable with its white belly and tail. Females are a bit more cryptic. The speckled green underparts and white tail tips are shared with the female Green-crowned Brilliant, but that species has a white moustachial stripe and a straighter bill. Some young Andean Emeralds have speckling extending across their breast, but it is never as heavy as in the Jacobin and they usually have a pink base to the bill. More
