Yellow-billed Cotinga
Carpodectes antoniae Ridgway, 1884
Cotingidae — Cotingas
Yellow-billed Cotinga, Carpodectes antoniae, is a passerine of the Cotingidae family that breeds in Middle America, in Costa Rica and Panama. It is tied mainly to the Pacific coast, especially mangrove forest, and also uses lowland forest and shrubland. Its most useful field mark is the yellow bill. The species is found in scattered pockets, with the strongest presence in the Golfo Dulce and Osa Peninsula area, and the main nesting site at the mouth of the Sierpe River. It was described by Ridgway in 1884.
