The plate-billed mountain toucan (Andigena laminirostris) is a species of bird in the family Ramphastidae. It is native to the west slope of Ecuador and extreme southern Colombia, where it lives in the high-altitude humid montane forests of the Andes. It is also known as the laminated hill-toucan, laminated mountain-toucan, and plain-billed mountain-toucan. This is the most vocal of the mountain toucans, and the sexes often duet. The bird utters rattles and clicks loud enough to be heard from over a kilometer away.
