Scarlet-banded barbet

The Scarlet-banded barbet is classified as Vulnerable (VU), considered to be facing a high risk of extinction in the wild.

The Scarlet-banded Barbet (Capito wallacei) is a species of bird in the Capitonidae family. Only discovered in 1996 and formally described in 2000, the Scarlet-banded Barbet is endemic to humid highland forest growing on a ridgetop known as Peak 1538 in the remote Cordillera Azul National Park in south-western Loreto, Peru (mistakenly listed as being in Ucayali, Peru, in its formal description). While it remains fairly common, its range is tiny and the total population has been estimated at less than 1000 individuals. More

The Scarlet-banded Barbet is currently known only from the unnamed peak, where it is reasonably numerous, although much of the region where it was discovered is unexplored and any areas about 1,250 m are likely to provide suitable cloud forest habitat. Currently threats to the species are few because the area is so remote and little visited by people. However, deforestation is extensive and increasing on the western slopes of the Cordillera Azul, some 50 km to the west. More
