Short-tailed antthrush Species of bird

The short-tailed antthrush is a South American species of bird in the family Formicariidae. Its distribution is highly disjunct with populations in the Atlantic Forest in eastern Brazil, eastern Paraguay and northeastern Argentina, isolated highland forests in northeastern Brazil, forests on the tepuis in southern Venezuela, Guyana and northern Brazil, and in forests along the east Andean slope from Venezuela to Bolivia.

Cryptic antthrush Species of bird

The cryptic antthrush, also known as Such's antthrush, is a species of bird in the family Formicariidae. It is endemic to Atlantic Forest in southeastern Brazil. Although first described almost 200 years ago, it was long overlooked due to confusion with the rufous-tailed antthrush and short-tailed antthrush, which inhabit the same region. The cryptic antthrush is mainly found at altitudes above the short-tailed antthrush, but below the rufous-tailed antthrush. When Nicholas Aylward Vigors described this species in 1825, he based it on two specimens collected by George Such, and this is the reason for the other common name, Such's antthrush.

Rufous-tailed antthrush Species of bird

The rufous-tailed antthrush or Brazilian antthrush is a species of bird in the family Formicariidae. It is endemic to the Atlantic Forest in southeastern Brazil and far northeastern Argentina. The cryptic antthrush and short-tailed antthrush are present in the same region, but these are mainly found at lower altitudes than the rufous-tailed antthrush.

Schwartzs antthrush Species of bird

Schwartz's antthrush, also known as the scalloped antthrush, is a species of bird in the family Formicariidae. It is found in humid highland forest in the Andes of Colombia and the Coastal Range in Venezuela. The Colombian population belongs to the nominate subspecies, while the Venezuelan belongs to chionogaster. Long included as a subspecies of the rufous-tailed antthrush, it was only recognized as a separate species in 1992. It takes its name from ornithologist Paul A. Schwartz, who was the first to realize how strikingly different its song sounds compared to that of the rufous-tailed antthrush. The song of Schwartz's antthrush is closer to that of the cryptic antthrush.
