About the Black-hooded Antshrike

The black-hooded antshrike (Thamnophilus bridgesi) is a species of bird in subfamily Thamnophilinae of family Thamnophilidae, the "typical antbirds". It is found in Costa Rica and Panama. The black-hooded antshrike was described by the English zoologist Philip Sclater in 1856 and given its current binomial name Thamnophilus bridgesi. The specific epithet honors a Mr. Bridges who collected the holotype. (Sclater did not publish Bridges' given name.) The black-hooded antshrike is monotypic.

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.
