About the Five-colored Barbet
The five-colored barbet (Capito quinticolor) is a species of bird in the family Capitonidae, the New World barbets. It is found in Colombia and Ecuador. The five-colored barbet is monotypic. It and the white-mantled barbet (Capito hypoleucos) were briefly thought to be a single species. DNA data have shown it instead to be sister to black-girdled barbet (C. dayi).
