Foothill Stipplethroat

Epinecrophylla spodionota

Least Concern

The Foothill Stipplethroat is an antwren of humid forests in Ecuador, Colombia, and Peru. A tiny, restless antbird, it gleans small insects from leaves and twigs, frequently joining mixed-species foraging flocks. Fun fact: Antwrens are not related to true wrens; the name reflects their small size and busy, wren-like foraging.
