Long-billed Woodcreeper (Nasica longirostris)
About the Long-billed Woodcreeper
The long-billed woodcreeper (Nasica longirostris) is a sub-oscine passerine bird in subfamily Dendrocolaptinae of the ovenbird family Furnariidae. It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Peru, and Venezuela. The long-billed woodcreeper is the only member of genus Nasica. It is monotypic: No subspecies are recognized. Its closest relative is the cinnamon-throated woodcreeper (Dendrexetastes rufigula). The population south of the Amazon River has significantly longer bills than those birds north of the river, and has been treated by some authors as subspecies N. l. australis.
