Crax alberti Fraser, 1852
Cracidae — Chachalacas, Curassows, Guans
Blue-billed Curassow, Crax alberti, is a bird of northern Colombia in the Cracidae family. It lives only in that part of South America, where it is tied to undisturbed forest in tropical and upper tropical zones. Its most distinctive feature is the blue cere, with the male also carrying a blue wattle. The species is the only curassow with that combination. It has an erectile crest, and the sexes differ in the pattern on the lower body and tail.
