Manu Antbird (Cercomacra manu)
About the Manu Antbird
The Manu antbird (Cercomacra manu) is a species of bird in subfamily Thamnophilinae of family Thamnophilidae, the "typical antbirds". It is found in Brazil, Bolivia, and Peru. The type specimen of the Manu antbird was collected in 1980 and was identified as this new species. A specimen collected in the same general region in 1964 was retroactively determined to also be a Manu antbird; it had been thought to be a jet antbird (C. nigricans). Its closest relatives within genus Cercomacra have not been determined. The Manu antbird is monotypic.
