Stripe-headed Antpitta (Grallaria andicolus)
About the Stripe-headed Antpitta
The stripe-headed antpitta (Grallaria andicolus) is a species of bird in the family Grallariidae. It is found in Bolivia and Peru. The stripe-headed antpitta was described by German ornithologist Jean Louis Cabanis as Hypsibamon andicolus. The stripe-headed antpitta has two subspecies, the nominate G. a. andicolous (Cabanis, 1873) and G. a. punensis (Chubb, 1918). Subspecies G. a. punensis was originally described as a species and because the two differ somewhat in their vocalizations some authors have suggested that G. a. punensis should again be treated as a species. The exact relation of the stripe-headed antpitta to other members of genus Grallaria is not known and there are indications that it might belong in its own genus.
