As far as species I've seen recently:

Toco Toucan: San Diego Zoo (saw 1), Woodland Park Zoo (saw 1)

Plate-billed Mountain Toucan: San Diego Zoo (saw 2)

Curl-crested Aracari: San Diego Zoo (saw 1), Seaworld San Diego (saw 2)

Guanian Toucanet: San Diego Zoo (saw 2)


Species I remember from farther back:

Keel-billed Toucan: Sacramento Zoo (2), Fresno Chaffee Zoo (2)

Chestnut-mandibled Toucan: Oakland Zoo (1)

Chestnut-eared Aracari: Fresno Chaffee Zoo (1)

 

I saw a green aracari in Cleveland Metroparks Zoo last week. He even posed nicely for a picture

 

@vogelcommando Do you happen to know what subspecies of Chestnut-eared Aracari Walsrode keeps?

 

Just before Christmas I was at Potter Park Zoo in Lansing, MI and saw three green aracaris, might be new there, i don't recall seeing them there back in the summer when we were there last

 

New (sub)species for our Gallery ! MagpieGoose just uploaded a photo of a Humboldt's aracari in the Pairi Daiza Gallery. Sometimes considert being a subspecies of the Lettered aracari - like in this thread - many others see it as a species on its own.
Photo can be found here : Humboldt's Aracari - ZooChat

 

Both photos you link show a Humboldt’s aracari. That species has an entirely black lower mandible (evident in both pictures), as opposed to true lettered which do not.

 

Thank you for clearification so now we need a picture of the Lettered aracari !

 

Thanks to @Giant Eland for uploading the first photo of this species in the Gallery ! The photo of this first specimen ( see bird - ZooChat ) was taken at Bioparque la Reserva in Colombia.

 

A privat breeding station ( Twitter Breeding ) anounced that they now bred the species. The naming of the subspecies made me however suspicious being Alaucorhynchus albivitta atrogularis.This subspecies is unknown to me but there is another species, the Black-throated toucanet bares the name Alaucorhynchus atrogularis so not sure which of the 2 species has been bred at Twitter Breeding.
They also anounched the breeding of the Chestnut eared aracari, a species which they already had bred before. Here a video of the recently hatched chick :

2 Toco toucans have been bred sofar this year and the young already have left the nest at Twitter Breeding - a private breeding station in the Netherlands :

Does anybody knows the exact number of species and subspecies of toucans and aracaris currently kept at the DWA ?

 

27

 

Andigena hypoglauca and Selenidera reinwardtii are both in Europe

 

Totally agree , the Gould plates are some of the most beautiful natural history paintings ever painted IMO.

 

Buin Zoo has recently bred the Toco toucan.

In the past they also held keel-billed and Swainson's toucan.

I remember seeing Green Aracaris, don't remember if at Buin or at the Santiago Zoo.

 

In 2019 Zoo Ave in Costa Rica held specimens of Black-mandibled Toucan, Keel-billed Toucan, Collared Aracari, Fiery-billed Aracari and Blue-throated Toucanet. Not quite every species present in CR, but most of them. These were all 'rescued' animals, however, so of sure of status now.

 

Only the Yellow-eared Toucanet is missing, also the only Costa Rican species I haven't seen in the wild.
