Pipile cumanensis has a wide range in northern South America. It is still locally abundant in
Suriname and in
Guyana (Restall
et al. 2006), but in
French Guiana it is rare and very local. Its abundance is described as local in
Colombia and Amazonas,
Venezuela.
In
Ecuador the taxon was estimated to occur at densities of over 20 birds/km
2 in its preferred habitat in 1994 (del Hoyo
et al. 1994), but is now considered uncommon (Restall
et al. 2006). In
Peru, it remains common in the south, but is rare and in some danger of local extinction in the north-east. The range reaches northern
Bolivia, while in
Brazil the taxon is common in north Roraima, but it is scarce around cities (Tefé, Manaus) and there have been no recent records from the state of Amapá.
