Bar-crested Antshrike (Thamnophilus multistriatus)
About the Bar-crested Antshrike
The bar-crested antshrike (Thamnophilus multistriatus) is a species of bird in subfamily Thamnophilinae of family Thamnophilidae, the "typical antbirds". It is found in Colombia and Venezuela. Some researchers suspected that the bar-crested antshrike should be treated as a subspecies of the chestnut-backed antshrike (T. palliatus). This treatment was never accepted, and a study published in 2007 confirmed that the bar-crested antshrike is a full species. The bar-crested antshrike has these four subspecies: T. m. brachyurus Todd, 1927 T. m. selvae Meyer de Schauensee, 1950 T. m. multistriatus Lafresnaye, 1844 T. m. oecotonophilus Borrero & Hernández-Camacho, 1958.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 119 recordings for this species: 93 CC BY-NC-SA · 26 CC BY-NC-ND. 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.
