Bolivian Spinetail (Cranioleuca henricae)
About the Bolivian Spinetail
The Bolivian spinetail (Cranioleuca henricae) is a vulnerable species of bird in the Furnariinae subfamily of the ovenbird family Furnariidae. It is endemic to Bolivia. The Bolivian spinetail was discovered in 1993 near Inquisivi, in the department of La Paz, and formally described in 1997. Maijer and Fjeldså hypothesized that it is related to the line-cheeked spinetail (C. antisiensis), creamy-crested spinetail (C. albicapilla), olive spinetail (C. obsoleta), pallid spinetail (C. pallida), and stripe-crowned spinetail (C. pyrrhophia). Later phylogenetic data confirmed that all of these except the line-cheeked are closely related to the Bolivian spinetail. The Bolivian spinetail is monotypic.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 18 recordings for this species: 18 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.
