The Tucumán mountain finch (Compsospiza baeri) is a species of bird in the family Thraupidae. It is endemic to shrubby woodland in the Andes of north-western Argentina, but it is possible its distribution extends marginally into adjacent Bolivia. Together with the closely related Cochabamba mountain finch, it was formerly placed in the genus Poospiza. It is threatened by habitat loss.
