My first Myrmothera! They really have quite a different look from the cloud forest Grallarias that I'm familiar with. But just as satisfying to spot! Posted 3 years ago, modified 3 years ago

    Yup a very strange bird all around. Also, if you don't mind, could you please update the taxonomy? Wiki is out of date, it's been moved to Myrmothera. Posted 3 years ago

      Fixed now. Sorry, had to re-identify because of an issue in the taxonomy tree. If you want, you can remove the ID and re-ID it ti put it back to your name. Note that the species intro is yours in any case. Posted 3 years ago
