Urrao Antpitta
Grallaria urraoensis Carantón-Ayala & Certuche-Cubillos, 2010
Grallariidae — Antpittas
Urrao Antpitta, Grallaria urraoensis, is a passerine of the antpitta family found in north-west Colombia. It lives in the understorey of cloud forest in the Andean highlands. The species was described by Carantón-Ayala and Certuche-Cubillos in 2010. It has also been called Fenwick’s Antpitta, and the name Antioquia Antpitta has been suggested as a compromise English name. There has been debate over the earlier published name Grallaria fenwickorum, but many authorities, including the International Ornithological Congress, use Grallaria urraoensis.
