About the Canyon Canastero

The canyon canastero (Asthenes pudibunda) is a species of bird in the Furnariinae subfamily of the ovenbird family Furnariidae. It is found in Peru and far-northern Chile. The canyon canastero has three subspecies, the nominate A. p. pudibunda (Sclater, 1874), A. p. neglecta (Cory, 1916), and A. p. grisior (Koepcke, M., 1961). Some authors have treated the rusty-fronted canastero (A. ottonis) and maquis canastero (A. heterura) as subspecies of the canyon canastero and others have treated the three as a superspecies. However, genetic data show that the canyon canastero is most closely related to the Vilcabamba thistletail (A. vilcabambae).

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 17 recordings for this species: 4 CC BY-NC-ND · 1 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.
