The wattled guan (Aburria aburri) is a species of bird in the family Cracidae. It is a fairly large black cracid with blue-based, black-tipped beak and a long, red-and-yellow wattle.
It is found in Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest and subtropical or tropical moist montane forest. The wattled guan is a fairly shy species that is mostly seen when it perches on the outer edge of the canopy from a distance. Like many tropical forest birds, it is heard more often than seen. It is threatened by habitat destruction but the IUCN assessed its conservation status as being "Least Concern" in 2023, though it was previously classified as "Near Threatened" since 2000.

Its natural habitat is wet mountain forest and woodland verges, and it also occurs in secondary forest. Its altitudinal range is .
