About the Chestnut-breasted Whiteface

The chestnut-breasted whiteface (Aphelocephala pectoralis) is a small passerine bird endemic to inland South Australia, with some unconfirmed sightings in the Northern Territory. The species is most likely found on the Country of the Antakirinja Matu-Yankunytjatjara, Arabana and Kokatha-Barngarla peoples, although no Indigenous name has been recorded for it and Country boundaries are approximate.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 3 recordings for this species: 3 CC BY-NC-SA. None of them permits commercial use, so there is no player here — the page is kept as a profile so the bird is not missing from the guide.

As soon as someone uploads a freely licensed recording, we mirror it and the player appears here.
