Capito fitzpatricki

Wikipedia Abstract

The Sira barbet (Capito wallacei fitzpatricki) is a bird inhabiting the remote eastern Andes of Ucayali Department, Peru, that was discovered on a 2008 expedition. It occurs in genetic isolation due to the isolated geography of its home range along a ridge of montane cloud forest in the southern portion of the Cerros del Sira. Eight specimens were collected from the upper Río Shinipo 10°31′48″S 74°07′12″W / 10.53000°S 74.12000°W and Río Tzipani valleys 10°41′24″S 74°05′56″W / 10.69000°S 74.09889°W, and a further two at Quebrada Quirapokiari 10°25′12″S 74°09′00″W / 10.42000°S 74.15000°W in July 2011.
