Orange-bellied Manakin (Lepidothrix suavissima)
About the Orange-bellied Manakin
The orange-bellied manakin (Lepidothrix suavissima), also known as the tepui manakin, is a species of bird in the family Pipridae. It is found in Brazil, Guyana, and Venezuela. The orange-bellied manakin was originally described in 1882 as Pipra suavissima. By the late 1900s genus Lepidothrix was recognized as separate from Pipra and several species including the orange-bellied manakin were assigned to it. The orange-bellied manakin was for a time in the mid-twentieth century treated as subspecies of the white-fronted manakin (then Pipra serena, now L. serena). The two have very similar plumage. The orange-bellied manakin is monotypic.
