Locally fairly common. Recorded only in narrow altitudinal band on outlying ridges in and on boundary of Sira Communal Reserve, within very small range of less than 300 km², where probably present continuously at appropriate elevations. If it does not extend to western slope or northern part of the Cerros del Sira, its complete global range thought likely to be less than 710 km² (7 BirdLife International (2022). Species factsheet: Capito fitzpatricki. Downloaded from http://www.birdlife.org on 22/10/2022. Close ). Mapping of this range yields an estimated Extent of Occurrence of c.500 km². Using congeners as a guide permits a preliminary population estimate of 1,000–2,499 mature individuals (7 BirdLife International (2022). Species factsheet: Capito fitzpatricki. Downloaded from http://www.birdlife.org on 22/10/2022. Close ). In 2025, the Sira Barbet was documented at higher elevations and on the western slope of the Sira (6 Schmitt, F. (2025). FOUND: Sira Barbet and Peruvian Solitaire in southeastern Peru. Search for Lost Birds News. Accessed 07 February 2025. Close ; S. Llactahuaman, eBird), but the extent of occurrence has not yet been reestimated.
