Eubucco is a genus of colourful
birds in the
Capitonidae family. They are found in humid forest in
South and
Central America, and the species have almost entirely
allo- or
parapatric distributions. Slightly smaller than the members of the genus
Capito, members of the genus
Eubucco are all
sexually dimorphic, have stubby yellowish bills, green backs, yellow to the neck or underparts, and, at least in the males, red to the head. Typically seen singly or in pairs, they are primarily
frugivorous, but also take
arthropods.
