The lappet-faced vulture or Nubian vulture (Torgos tracheliotos syn. Torgos tracheliotus) is an Old World vulture belonging to the bird order Accipitriformes. Torgos tracheliotos is patchily distributed through much of Africa, though it is absent from much of the central and western parts of the continent and declining elsewhere in its range.
