Fulvous antshrike
The
fulvous
antshrike
is a
monotypic species
of
antbird
in the
family
Thamnophilidae
. Formerly considered to be a
subspecies
of the
undulated antshrike
, it was
determined
to be a
distinct
species
based on
vocal
differences
. The species occurs from the
western
Amazon
in
eastern
Ecuador
,
south-eastern
Colombia
,
north-eastern
Peru
, and
possibly
extreme
western
Brazil
. Only the
female
is
overall
fulvous with
dark
barring
; the
male
is
black
with
whitish
barring.
