Capito Niger - Black-spotted Barbet (male); Manaus, Amazonas, Brazil
''Capito'' is a genus of birds in the family Capitonidae. They are found in humid forests in South America, with a single species extending into eastern Panama. Slightly larger than the members of the genus ''Eubucco'', members of the genus ''Capito'' are all sexually dimorphic and thickset, and have stubby pale bills that often are tipped black. With the exception of the somewhat aberrant scarlet-crowned barbet, black, red, orange, yellow and white are the dominating colours in their plumage, and males have at least partially black backs. Typically seen singly or in pairs, they are primarily frugivorous, but also take arthropods. Species References * Schulenberg, T., D. Stotz, D. Lane, J. O'Neill, & T. Parker III. (2007).

Taxonomy and systematics Since its description in 1916, the black-girdled barbet has almost always been recognized as a species. However, it was briefly considered to be a subspecies of black-spotted barbet (''Capito niger''). DNA data have shown it instead to be sister to five-colored barbet (''C. quinticolor'').Remsen, J.
