Bertoni's Antbird, Drymophila rubricollis, is a bird of bamboo stands in evergreen forest in eastern Paraguay, north-eastern Argentina and south-eastern Brazil. It is a passerine in the antbird family. Its range extends through the understorey and mid-storey, and in the north it occurs at 900 to 2,000 m, while farther south it is found near sea level. The species was named for Arnoldo de Winkelried Bertoni. It was once treated as part of the ferruginous antbird and is now the only member of its kind.
