The Boano monarch (Symposiachrus boanensis) is a small passerine bird found in the forests of Boano Island in Indonesia. It has a distinctive black and white plumage with a bright blue patch on its wings. This species is known for its melodious and varied songs, often heard echoing through the dense foliage. The Boano monarch forages for insects and small invertebrates in the lower and middle canopy layers of the forest. Its population size and trend are currently unknown, and further research is needed to assess its conservation status.
