The eastern black-eared wheatear (Oenanthe melanoleuca) is a wheatear, a small migratory passerine bird that was formerly classed as a member of the thrush family Turdidae, but is now considered to be an Old World flycatcher (family Muscicapidae). It was formerly (and still is by some authorities) considered conspecific with the western black-eared wheatear. Description The breeding male has the forehead, crown, and mantle white or nearly white with a buff tinge, and the wings blacker than those of the northern wheatear.
