FIRST DESCRIPTION OF SONG DISPLAY AND OTHER NOTES ON THE BARE-NECKED FRUITCROW (GYMNODERUS FOETIDUS, COTINGIDAE)

I present here the first published field observations of display behavior and vocalizations of the Bare-necked Fruitcrow (Gymnoderus foetidus). Data taken from specimens at Louisiana State University Museum of Natural Science (LSUMZ) are also given, including bare part colors, sexual size dimorphism, diet, a description of juvenile plumage, and notes on plumage maintenance. This species, although com- mon and often seen, is remarkably understudied. Accepted 28 February 2003.
