Genus Leucoblepharon^ Baird (1858) 



Neck long ; bill and forehead black, as are feet. On head, only hind part of cheeks and 

 aural regions white, but sometimes white patches extend to the throat, where they meet. 



Easily distinguished from genus Leucopareia, Reichenbach, by the long neck and the 

 absence of subterminal black stripes on feathering of body and wings.
