Unknown to Argentina (B).

Population of south-eastern Peru was separated as subspecies, marcapatensis, but later recognized as synonym of plumosa.

The following 5 subspecies are recognised:

• montagnii (Bonaparte, 1856)   -  North-western Venezuela and northern and central Colombia.
• atrogularis Hellmayr & Conover, 1932   -  Western slope of Andes in southern Colombia and Ecuador.
• brooki Chubb, C, 1917   -  Eastern slope of Andes in southern Colombia and Ecuador.
• plumosa von Berlepsch & Stolzmann, 1902   -  Eastern slope of Andes in Peru.
• sclateri Gray, GR, 1860   -  Yungas of Bolivia; usually said to occur in extreme northern Argentina too, but this is based on two specimens recently shown to belong to Red-faced Guan (Penelope dabbenei).
