The Bolivian recurvebill (Syndactyla striata) is a bird species in the Furnariinae subfamily of the ovenbird family Furnariidae.

Their vocalizations and behavior strongly suggested the two species belonged in Syndactyla, and that placement was confirmed by genetic study.

Their rump is slightly paler than the back and minimally streaked, and their uppertail coverts are dark chestnut.

Their throat and malar area are orange-rufous with faint paler spots at the throat's lower edge, their breast and upper belly blurrily streaked with orange-rufous and brown, and their lower belly a minimally streaked rich brown.

[6] The Bolivian recurvebill is found in the Andean foothills of far southeastern Peru and western and central Bolivia.

The Bolivian recurvebill's song is "a harsh, staccato, rattling, ascending series that levels in pitch and then ends abruptly".

Its "range and abundance have been recently [1992] studied, and it has been found to be more widely distributed and commoner than previously thought".
