Ceratopipra is a genus of passerine birds in the family Pipridae.
The genus Ceratopipra was introduced by the French naturalist Charles Lucien Bonaparte in 1854 with the scarlet-horned manakin as the type species. [1] [2] The name Ceratopipra combines the Ancient Greek κερας keras, κερατος keratos "horn" with the genus Pipra introduced by Carl Linnaeus in 1764. [3]
The genus contains the five species: [4]
| Image | Scientific name | Common Name | Distribution |
|---|---|---|---|
 | Ceratopipra cornuta | Scarlet-horned manakin | Venezuela and adjacent Guyana and northern Brazil |
 | Ceratopipra mentalis | Red-capped manakin | Belize, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Peru and Panama. |
 | Ceratopipra erythrocephala | Golden-headed manakin | from Panama, Colombia and Trinidad south and east to the Guianas and Brazil and northern Peru |
 | Ceratopipra rubrocapilla | Red-headed manakin | Bolivia, Brazil, and Peru. |
 | Ceratopipra chloromeros | Round-tailed manakin | Bolivia, Brazil, and Peru. |
These species were previously included in the genus Pipra , but molecular phylogenetic studies have shown that this placement renders Pipra non-monophyletic. [5] [6] [7]
The typical warblers are small birds belonging to the genus Sylvia in the "Old World warbler" family Sylviidae.
The manakins are a family, Pipridae, of small suboscine passerine birds. The group contains 55 species distributed through the American tropics. The name is from Middle Dutch mannekijn "little man".
The sharpbill is a small passerine bird in the family Tityridae. Its range is from the mountainous areas of tropical South America and southern Central America.
The Tyranni (suboscines) are a suborder of passerine birds that includes more than 1,000 species, the large majority of which are South American. It is named after the type genus Tyrannus. These have a different anatomy of the syrinx musculature than the oscines, hence the common name of suboscines.
The white-crowned manakin is a small passerine bird in the manakin family Pipridae. This common and extremely widespread manakin is one of the most easily identified, even in female plumage. It is a resident breeder in the tropical New World from Costa Rica to northeastern Peru and eastern Brazil. It was traditionally placed in the genus Pipra, but is now placed in its own monotypic genus Pseudopipra. It is a small, compact bird about 10 cm (3.9 in) long. Males have black plumage with a white crown which can be erected as a crest, the only member of the Pipridae to possess both an all-black body and a gleaming white crown. Females and juveniles are olive-green, with a grey head and throat, and greyish-green or olive underparts. At breeding time, males are involved in a lekking behaviour. This is a fairly common species with a wide range, and the International Union for Conservation of Nature has rated its conservation status as being of "least concern".
Corapipo is a genus of birds in the manakin family Pipridae that are found in Central America and northern parts of South America.
Lepidothrix is a genus of passerine birds in the manakin family Pipridae. Birds in the genus are predominantly found in South America, but one species, the velvety manakin, also ranges into Central America. The females of this genus have green plumage with yellow bellies, as do some of the males. The remaining males have black plumage with white or blue crowns. Some also have yellow bellies or blue rumps.
The blue-capped manakin is a species of bird in the family Pipridae. The males have a brilliant blue cap; some have black, others have green body plumage, but the relationship between the subspecies is not well understood.
Machaeropterus is a genus of passerine birds in the manakin family Pipridae. They are found in the tropical forests of South America.
The kinglet manakin or eastern striped manakin is a small South American species of passerine bird in the manakin family Pipridae. It is found in the Atlantic Forest of south eastern Brazil. It was formerly considered conspecific with the striolated manakin with the common name "striped manakin". Males have a bright red crown, which the females lack.
The red-capped manakin is a species of bird in the family Pipridae. It is found in Belize, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Peru and Panama. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest.
Piprites is a genus of bird currently placed in the family Tyrannidae. Prior to 1971, the genus was placed in the family Pipridae; its designation was initially changed based on morphological evidence, and genetic evidence confirmed its placement in 2009. In 2013, it was proposed that Piprites was to be placed in the unique family Pipritinae. The proposition was declined by the Comité de Clasificación de Sudamérica, a part of the American Ornithological Society, and the proposed family was changed to be a unique subfamily of the genus. The genus is composed of three species native to the neotropical realm, with distributions ranging from the Caribbean coast of Guatemala, Central America, and southeastern Argentina.
The black-capped piprites, also known as the black-capped manakin, bailarín castaño, or piprites capirotado, is a species of suboscine passerine. It has been placed in the genus Piprites, part of the Tyrannidae family. Previously, the species was included in the family Pipridae, but was reclassified following genetic studies.
Pogonotriccus is a genus of small passerine birds in the tyrant flycatcher family Tyrannidae. They are found in wooded habitats of Central and South America.
Tityridae is family of suboscine passerine birds found in forest and woodland in the Neotropics. The 45 species in this family were formerly spread over the families Tyrannidae, Pipridae and Cotingidae. As yet, no widely accepted common name exists for the family, although tityras and allies and tityras, mourners and allies have been used. They are small to medium-sized birds. Under current classification, the family ranges in size from the buff-throated purpletuft, at 9.5 cm (3.7 in) and 10 grams, to the masked tityra, at up to 24 cm (9.5 in) and 88 grams. Most have relatively short tails and large heads.
Tyrannides is a clade of passerine birds that are endemic to the Americas. The group likely originated in South America during the Eocene, about 45 million years ago.
The striolated manakin or western striped manakin is a small South American species of passerine bird in the family Pipridae. It is found in west and north west Amazonia. The striolated manakin was formerly considered conspecific with the kinglet manakin with the common name "striped manakin". Males have a bright red crown, which the females lack.
The painted manakin is a small South American species of passerine bird in the manakin family Pipridae. It was first described in 2017 from specimens collected in north west Peru.
The Apolo cotinga or palkachupa cotinga is a species of passerine bird in the family Cotingidae. It is a member of the genus Phibalura.
The velvety manakin is a species of bird in the family Pipridae. It is found from Costa Rica to Ecuador. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest.
