Pearly-breasted cuckoo

The pearly-breasted cuckoo (Coccyzus euleri) is a species of cuckoo in the family Cuculidae. It is found in Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil,^[2] Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Paraguay, Suriname, Peru^[3] and Venezuela. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and heavily degraded former forest. It does not occur above an elevation of 2000 meters.^[4]

It can easily be confused with the yellow-billed cuckoo.^[5]

The status and even the general distribution of this scarce cuckoo remain very poorly understood.^[6]

This cuckoo is hunted.^[7]
