About the Striated Antbird
The striated antbird (Drymophila devillei) is a species of bird in subfamily Thamnophilinae of family Thamnophilidae, the "typical antbirds". It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. The striated antbird has two subspecies, the nominate D. d. devillei (Ménégaux & Hellmayr, 1906) and D. d. subochracea (Chapman, 1921). Some authors have suggested that the subspecies deserve to be treated as full species. Subspecies D. d. subochracea has sometimes been called the "Xingu antbird", which can cause it to be confused with the Xingu scale-backed antbird (Willisornis vidua). The striated antbird and the East Andean antbird are sister species.
The striated antbird is 13 to 14 cm (5.1 to 5.5 in) long and weighs 10 to 12 g (0.35 to 0.42 oz). Adult males of the nominate subspecies have a black crown and back with thin white streaks and a large white patch between the scapulars. Their rump is orangish buff. Their flight feathers are slate gray with cinnamon edges and their wing coverts black with white tips. Their tail is black with wide white tips to the feathers and large white spots on the innermost pair. Their face, throat... Wikipedia →
