About the Bare-crowned Antbird
The bare-crowned antbird (Gymnocichla nudiceps) is a species of bird in subfamily Thamnophilinae of family Thamnophilidae, the "typical antbirds". It is found in Belize, Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, and Panama. The bare-crowned antbird was originally described by the American ornithologist John Cassin in 1850 with the name Myiothera nudiceps. In 1858 the English zoologist Philip Sclater erected genus Gymnocichla and transferred the species to it. The bare-crowned antbird is the only member of its genus and has these four subspecies: G. n. chiroleuca Sclater, PL & Salvin, 1869 G. n. erratilis Bangs, 1907 G. n. nudiceps (Cassin, 1850) G. n. sanctamartae Ridgway, 1908.
