Chestnut antpitta

Grallaria blakei

The chestnut antpitta is a species of bird in the family Grallariidae. It is endemic to Peru. In 2020, two new species previously believed to be populations of chestnut pitta were described: the Oxapampa antpitta and the Ayacucho antpitta; this has left the chestnut antpitta with a much reduced range.

Status

The chestnut antpitta is currently assessed to be Near Threatened by the IUCN Red List due to its disjunct distribution and the threat of deforestation.BirdLife International. 2017. Grallaria blakei. The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species 2017: e.T22703327A110972822. https://dx.doi.org/10.2305/IUCN.UK.2017-1.RLTS.T22703327A110972822.en. Downloaded on 16 November 2020. However, the species was split into three different species in 2020, and so all three need to be reassessed in light of their more restricted ranges.
