Genus of birds
Ceratopipra is a genus of passerine birds in the family Pipridae.
Taxonomy.
The genus "Ceratopipra" was introduced by the French naturalist Charles Lucien Bonaparte in 1854 with the scarlet-horned manakin as the type species. The name "Ceratopipra" combines the Ancient Greek κερας "keras", κερατος "keratos" "horn" with the genus "Pipra" introduced by Carl Linnaeus in 1764.
Species.
The genus contains the five species:
These species were previously included in the genus "Pipra", but molecular phylogenetic studies have shown that this placement renders "Pipra" non-monophyletic.
