Roraiman Antwren (Herpsilochmus roraimae)
About the Roraiman Antwren
The Roraiman antwren (Herpsilochmus roraimae) is an insectivorous bird in subfamily Thamnophilinae of family Thamnophilidae, the "typical antbirds". It is found in Brazil, Guyana, and Venezuela. The Roraiman antwren was first described by the Austrian ornithologist Carl Hellmayr in 1903 with the type locality in Guyana on Mount Roraima. Its relationship to others of its genus is unclear but it apparently is most closely related to the spot-backed antwren (H. dorsimaculatus). The Roraiman antwren has two subspecies, the nominate H. r. roraimae (Hellmayr, 1903) and H. r. kathleenae (Phelps Jr & Dickerman, 1980).
