The Streak-backed Oriole, Icterus pustulatus, is a medium-sized icterid (the same family as many blackbirds, meadowlarks, cowbirds, grackles, and others, including the New World orioles).
It is primarily found in the west coast of Mexico, but is a very, very rare visitor in the Southwestern United States.
It is also found in Costa Rica.
