Northern Slaty Antshrike (Thamnophilus punctatus)
About the Northern Slaty Antshrike
The northern slaty antshrike (Thamnophilus punctatus) is a species of bird in subfamily Thamnophilinae of family Thamnophilidae, the "typical antbirds". It is found in Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Peru, Suriname, and Venezuela. The northern slaty antshrike's binomial Thamnophilus punctatus previously applied to a species called the slaty antshrike which included 11 subspecies. Following the results of a study published in 1997, the slaty antshrike was split into six species. To avoid confusion the remnant T. punctatus was given its present name of northern slaty antshrike. The northern slaty antshrike has these four subspecies: T. p. interpositus Hartert, EJO & Goodson, 1917 T. p. punctatus (Shaw, 1809) T. p. leucogaster Hellmayr, 1924 T. p. huallagae Carriker, 1934

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 140 recordings for this species: 25 CC BY-NC-SA · 10 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.
