About the Rufous-breasted Antpitta

The rufous-breasted antpitta (Grallaricula leymebambae), also called Leymebamba antpitta, is a species of bird in the family Grallariidae. It is found in Bolivia, Ecuador, and Peru. The rufous-breasted antpitta was originally described in 1933 as a subspecies of the rusty-breasted antpitta (G. ferrugineipectus). A study published in 2018 showed it to be a full species. The rufous-breasted antpitta is monotypic.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 68 recordings for this species: 1 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.
