Grey-winged Cotinga (Lipaugus conditus)
About the Grey-winged Cotinga
The grey-winged cotinga (Lipaugus conditus) is a Vulnerable species of bird in the family Cotingidae. It is endemic to Brazil. The grey-winged cotinga was originally described as Tijuca condita. The type specimen had been collected in 1942 and classified as a female black-and-gold cotinga (then T. atra, now Lipaugus ater). Analyses of feather proteins in the specimen and black-and-gold cotingas proved that it was a separate species. The species' specific epithet conditus is from Latin conditus, stored away or hidden, in reference to the specimen's "hiding" under the wrong name for 30 years. The type specimen remains the only one of the species.
