Peruvian Antpitta, Grallaricula peruviana, is a passerine of the Grallariidae family that occurs in south-east Ecuador and north Peru on the eastern Andes slope. It was described by Chapman in 1923. This is a resident bird with a restricted range, and it is linked to humid subtropical forest, especially along streams and in other riparian places. It also seems to avoid disturbed habitat.
