Thamnophilidae — Antbirds

Streak-headed Antbird, Drymophila striaticeps, is a passerine of the antbird family found along the main Andean cordillera in western and central Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia. It was described by Chapman in 1912. The species is tied to montane evergreen forest and secondary growth, especially where bamboo is present, and it uses the understorey and mid-storey. Its range is split into separate populations on both slopes of the Andes, from Colombia south through Ecuador into Peru and on into Bolivia.
