Chami Antpitta (Grallaria alvarezi)
About the Chami Antpitta
The Chami antpitta (Grallaria alvarezi) is a species of bird in the family Grallariidae. It is endemic to Colombia. What is now the Chami antpitta was thought to be an undifferentiated population of what was then the rufous antpitta (G. rufula sensu lato). Research published in 2020 showed that it was a distinct species, and another 2020 publication confirmed that it is part of the rufous antpitta species complex of some 15 species. The International Ornithological Committee and the Clements taxonomy recognized the new species in 2021. As of early 2024 BirdLife International's Handbook of the Birds of the World (HBW) had not recognized it.
