context_page_description: The black-capped piprites, also known as the black-capped manakin, is a species of suboscine passerine. It has traditionally been placed in the Tyrannidae.
  It is found in Atlantic forest, especially with Araucaria angustifolia, growing in highlands of south-eastern Brazil and north-eastern Argentina. Until the recent rediscovery in Argentina, the only confirmed record for that country was a specimen taken in 1959. It is generally rare and local, and therefore considered vulnerable by BirdLife International. It is known from a number of protected areas, including the Itatiaia National Park in Rio de Janeiro, and Campos do Jordão State Park in São Paulo.
