Acerca de

The Bay-vented Cotinga is a near-threatened, little-known cotinga restricted to humid elfin forests on ridges in Ecuador and northern Peru. It is a plump bird with dark plumage and a distinctive rufous-chestnut vent. It feeds on fruit in the high-altitude forest canopy, and its rarity and restricted range make it vulnerable to habitat disturbance.
