Ringed Antpipit (Corythopis torquatus)
About the Ringed Antpipit
The ringed antpipit (Corythopis torquatus) is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers. It is found in every mainland South American country except Argentina, Chile, Paraguay, and Uruguay. The ringed antpipit was originally described as Conopophaga torquata, a member of the gnateater family Conopophagidae. Some authors later suggested that it belonged to family Formicariidae, the antthrushes. A study published in 1968 placed the genus in its current family, but there is still uncertainty about where it belongs. The ringed antpipit shares genus Corythopis with the southern antpipit (C. delalandi). They are treated as a superspecies and have been suggested to be conspecific.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 107 recordings for this species: 9 CC BY-NC-SA · 1 CC BY-NC-ND. 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.
