Machaeropterus striolatus (Bonaparte, 1838) | |
The striolated manakin or western striped manakin (Machaeropterus striolatus) 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 (Machaeropterus regulus) with the common name "striped manakin". Males have a bright red crown, which the females lack.
The striolated manakin was described by the French naturalist Charles Lucien Bonaparte in 1838 and given the binomial name Pipra striolata. [2] The species is now placed in the genus Machaeropterus that was introduced by Bonaparte in 1854. [3]
Five subspecies are recognised: [4]
The morphologically similar painted manakin from northern Peru was described in 2017. It differs from the striolated manakin in its vocalization. [5]
The striolated manakin is 9–9.5 cm (3.5–3.7 in) in length and weighs around 9.4 g (0.33 oz). The male of the nominate race is olive green above with a red crown and nape. The underparts are streaked redish and white. The throat is whitish. The female lacks the red crown. [6]
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".
The white-throated manakin is a species of bird in the family Pipridae. It is found in Brazil, French Guiana, Guyana, Suriname, and Venezuela. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest.
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.
The white-fronted manakin is a species of bird in the family Pipridae, the manakins. It is native to French Guiana, Guyana, Suriname and northeastern Brazil where it inhabits subtropical and tropical moist lowland forest. The male is mainly black, with a blue rump, yellow belly patches and a conspicuous patch of white feathers extending forwards from its forehead. The female is gray and black with a pale yellow belly and white eye ring. 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".
The fiery-capped manakin is a species of bird in the family Pipridae, the manakins. It is one of the five species in the genus Machaeropterus. It is named for its bright yellow head feathers.
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 golden-winged manakin is a species of bird in the family Pipridae. It is the only member of the monotypic genus, Masius.
The crimson-hooded manakin, also known as orange-headed manakin, is a species of bird in the family Pipridae. It is found in Brazil, French Guiana, Guyana, Suriname, and Venezuela. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical swampland and heavily degraded former forest. It is the northernmost member of the genus Pipra. It forms a superspecies with both the Band-tailed Manakin and the Wire-tailed Manakin.
The band-tailed manakin is a species of bird in the family Pipridae. It is found in Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay, and Peru. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, subtropical or tropical swamps, and heavily degraded former forest. It forms a superspecies with both the crimson-hooded manakin and the wire-tailed manakin.
The wire-tailed manakin is a species of bird in the family Pipridae. It forms a superspecies with both the Band-tailed Manakin and the Crimson-hooded Manakin . It is found upriver in the western Amazon Basin and the neighboring countries of northern Peru, eastern Ecuador and Colombia, and southern and western portions of Venezuela. In Venezuela it occurs upriver in the Orinoco River basin, but not the final 1300 km; its range in Venezuela continues around the Andes cordillera to the northwestern coast. In northwest Brazil, the species ranges from Roraima and Amazonas west to Venezuela and Colombia, and southwest from Rondônia and Acre to Peru and Ecuador.
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.

The Andean laniisoma, also known as the Andean mourner, is a species of passerine bird in the family Tityridae. It occurs in humid Andean forests in Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia. The species was formerly considered conspecific with the Brazilian laniisoma.
Ceratopipra is a genus of passerine birds in the family Pipridae.

Striped manakin refers to birds that are now recognized as two distinct species:
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.
