The white-necked Cayenne kite is a rare bird of prey from the Accipitridae family. It lives in the tropical forests of Brazil and has a characteristic white collar on its neck.
The white-necked Cayenne kite differs from the gray-headed kite by its bright white collar on the neck. It is important for forest nature because it regulates the number of insects and small reptiles.
