Yellow-browed Toucanet

The yellow-browed toucanet is 38 to 44 cm (15 to 17 in) long and weighs about 250 to 280 g (8.8 to 9.9 oz). The sexes are alike. Their bill is mostly bluish gray with a whitish gray tip and a bright white band at the base. They are mostly yellowish green above with a purer green crown. The face and sides of the neck are apple green with a short narrow yellow supercilium and bare black skin around the reddish eye. Their throat is whitish that becomes greener to a bright blue band across the lower breast. Their belly and flanks are yellowish green and their undertail coverts are golden yellow. Their tail's upper surface is green with a blue wash on the central pair of feathers; the innermost two pairs have chestnut tips. The tail's underside is dusky bluish.

The yellow-browed toucanet has a very small documented range on the east slope of the northern Andes of Peru. It is known from only one location in southern Amazonas Department, two in San Martín Department, and one in northeastern La Libertad Department. It probably occurs between them and possibly further north and south as well, but because the area is roadless opportunities for discovery are limited. It inhabits humid montane forest between elevations of 2,000 and 2,600 m (6,600 and 8,500 ft).

The yellow-browed toucanet forages mostly in the canopy. It is known to feed on fruit but details of its diet are lacking.
