Peruvian Warbling Antbird
Hypocnemis peruviana Taczanowski, 1884
Thamnophilidae — Antbirds
Peruvian Warbling Antbird, Hypocnemis peruviana, is a passerine antbird of South America, breeding in south-east Colombia, eastern Ecuador, north-east and eastern Peru, and western Brazil. It was described by Taczanowski in 1884. It lives mainly at the edges and in openings of várzea and igapó forest, in mature secondary forest, and along watercourses in more open country, with some use of terra firme forest and open woodland. The species was once treated as part of a wider warbling antbird complex, but is now recognised separately. It is also known as the Peruvian antwarbler.
