French: Hocco à face nue
German: Nacktgesichthokko
Spanish: Pavón Muitú
Other common names: Banded/Sclater's/Fasciated Curassow; Natterer's Curassow (pinima)
Taxonomy: Crax fasciolata Spix, 1825, state of Pará, Brazil.
All members of genus form superspecies. C. sclateri is a synonym. "C. estudilloi", an unconfirmed new species described in 1977, is thought by some to have originated from a hybrid of present species with another species of Crax (see page 315). Present species has hybridized in captivity with C. alberti and members of Penelope. Recently, a new race, xavieri, described from a male of captive origin showing ochre flanks and upper thighs; possibly a plumage aberration. Three subspecies normally recognized.
