Lipaugus is a genus of birds in the family Cotingidae.
Taxonomy
[edit]The genus was introduced in 1828 by the German zoologist Friedrich Boie in 1828. Boie spelled the genus name as Lipangus but this was corrected to Lipaugus.[2][3] The name comes from the Greek lipaugēs, meaning "dark" or "devoid of light".[4] The type species was designated by George Gray in 1840 as the screaming piha.[3][5]
The genus contains nine species.[6]
