The chestnut-capped piha (Lipaugus weberi) is a species of bird in the family Cotingidae. It is endemic to Colombia.

Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. Severe declines in range and population are likely owing to continuing habitat loss and degradation, which has caused this species to be classified as critically endangered.[2]
