About the Golden-breasted Fruiteater

The golden-breasted fruiteater (Pipreola aureopectus) is a species of bird in the family Cotingidae, the cotingas. It is found in Colombia and Venezuela. The golden-breasted fruiteater was originally described as Ampelis aureo-pectus. In the 1970s at least one author treated the golden-breasted fruiteater, black-chested fruiteater (P. lubomirskii), orange-breasted fruiteater (P. jucunda), and masked fruiteater (P. pulchra) as conspecific, but retracted that treatment about a decade later. The four are now considered a superspecies.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 47 recordings for this species: 26 CC BY-NC-SA · 7 CC BY-NC-ND. None of them permits commercial use, so there is no player here — the page is kept as a profile so the bird is not missing from the guide.

As soon as someone uploads a freely licensed recording, we mirror it and the player appears here.
