The seven-coloured tanager (Tangara fastuosa) is a vulnerable species of bird in the family Thraupidae. It is endemic to forests in north-eastern Brazil. It resembles the overall greener green-headed tanager; a species confusingly known as the seven-coloured tanager (saíra-sete-cores) in Portuguese.

The Seven-colored tanager is a 13.5 cm bird named for the spectacular coloration of its feathers.[2]
