About the Aripuana Antwren

The Aripuana antwren (Herpsilochmus stotzi) is an insectivorous bird in subfamily Thamnophilinae of family Thamnophilidae, the "typical antbirds". It is endemic to central Amazonian Brazil. The Aripuana antwren was first discovered in 1986 and at the time was thought to be a subpopulation of the black-capped antwren (H. atriacapillus). It was recognized as a species and so described in 2013 and recognition by regional and worldwide taxonomic systems followed. Its specific epithet honors the discoverer Douglas Stotz. The Aripuana antwren is monotypic.
