The Cyprus wheatear is a small migratory bird about 14 centimeters long. It nests only on Cyprus and flies to Africa for the winter.
The Cyprus wheatear differs from other wheatears by the bright black mask of males and the fact that it nests only on Cyprus. It is useful because it eats many insects and serves as an indicator of the health of Mediterranean mountain habitats.
