About the Red-necked Aracari
The red-necked aracari or red-necked araçari (Pteroglossus bitorquatus) is a bird in the toucan family Ramphastidae. It is found in Bolivia and Brazil. The International Ornithological Committee (IOC), the Clements taxonomy, and the South American Classification Committee of the American Ornithological Society (SACC) recognize three subspecies of red-necked aracari: P. b. sturmii - Natterer, 1843 P. b. reichenowi - Snethlage, E, 1907 The nominate P. b. bitorquatus - Vigors, 1826 BirdLife International's Handbook of the Birds of the World treats subspecies P. b. sturmii as a separate species, the "western red-necked araçari", and the other two subspecies as the "eastern red-necked araçari". This article follows the IOC et al. three-subspecies model.
