French: Cotinga de Sclater German: Braunbauchkotinga Spanish: Cotinga de Sclater

Taxonomy: Doliornis sclateri Taczanowski, 1874, Maraynioc, central Peru.
Genus sometimes merged with Ampelion, but differs in bill structure and juvenile plumage. Both genera, along with Zaratornis, appear to form a clade, which suggested by anatomical research and recent genetic data as being closely related to Phytotoma. Monotypic.
