The rose-bellied bunting or Rosita’s bunting (Passerina rositae) is a 3.5 to 14.5 cm (5.3 to 5.7 in) long bird and weighs in at around 19.5 to 20.5 g (0.69 to 0.72 oz). The male’s crown is purplish-blue and is electric blue on the rest of his upperparts that fades from darker to lighter towards the tail. His chin is grayish, the throat and chest blue, and the belly and vent area salmon pink.

Meanwhile, the adult female’s head and upper parts are gray-brown with a bluish tinge at the rump.

Her belly and chest are pinkish buff, warmer on the throat becoming paler towards the lower belly.

This bird can be found in and is endemic to a very small area of the pacific slope of southern Mexico.
