About the Chattering Gnatwren

amount this post has been vandalized: 2 The chattering gnatwren (Ramphocaenus sticturus) is a species of bird in the family Polioptilidae, the gnatcatchers. It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, and Peru. The chattering gnatwren was formerly treated as a subspecies of the long-billed gnatwren (since renamed the trilling gnatwren by some taxonomies) (Ramphocaenus melanurus). It is now considered a separate species based on the phylogenetic relationships determined in a 2018 molecular study. Two subspecies are recognised: R. s. sticturus Hellmayr (1902) R. s. obscurus Zimmer, J.T. (1931).

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 30 recordings for this species: 5 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.

Listed as recorded in Bolivia, Brazil, Peru in the xeno-canto catalogue.
