Adults are mainly olive-green on the upperparts with white underparts; they have a red iris and a grey crown edged with black. There is a dark blackish line through the eyes and a wide white stripe just above that line. They have thick blue-grey legs and a stout bill. They are yellowish on the flanks and undertail coverts (though this is faint in some populations). In the past, the yellow-green vireo (V. flavoviridis), the chivi vireo ("V. chivi"), and the Noronha vireo (V. gracilirostris) have been considered to be subspecies of the red-eyed vireo. Measurements: Length: 4.7-5.1 in (12–13 cm) Weight: 0.4-0.9 oz (12-26 g) Wingspan: 9.1-9.8 in (23–25 cm)
