Scott's Oriole, Icterus parisorum, is a passerine in the Icteridae family and breeds in North America and Middle America, including the south-western United States and Mexico. It was described by Bonaparte in 1838. The species is mainly associated with arid uplands that still have trees, and it is often seen in pinyon-juniper woodland, pine-oak woodland, scrub, and places with yucca. In the United States it occurs in scattered parts of the south-west, while in Mexico it is widespread across the Baja California peninsula and much of the mainland.
