Description

The scarlet-hooded barbet (Eubucco tucinkae) is a species of bird in the family Capitonidae. It is endemic to humid lowland forest in the south-western Amazon Basin in south-eastern Peru, north-western Bolivia and south-western Brazil; the majority of its range is in Peru-(60%?). It is generally uncommon. It is the only member of the genus Eubucco where both sexes have red to the head, the female being superficially similar to the male lemon-throated barbet.

Feeding Habits
Scarlet-hooded Barbet primarily eats fruits (60%) like figs and Lauraceae, and arthropods (40%) including termites. Scarlet-hooded Barbet forages at 2–11m, gleaning fruits and probing for insects in dead-leaf clusters. Scarlet-hooded Barbet often joins mixed-species flocks for feeding.
Habitat
The scarlet-hooded Barbet typically inhabits areas in close proximity to rivers and oxbow lakes, thriving in environments known as 'zabolo', which feature dense understorey growth with bamboos and Heliconia plants. These birds are often associated with a variety of towering trees like Cecropia, Cedrela odorata, Nectandra, Acacia, Erythrina, Sapium, and Terminalia, and can also be found in lush, overgrown gardens that were once cultivated and are situated near riverbanks or on river islands in broader tropical regions.
