Ochre-fronted antpitta

The ochre-fronted antpitta (Grallaricula ochraceifrons) is a Vulnerable species of bird in the family Grallariidae.

[3] "Grallaricula are very small Andean antpittas, found mostly in low dense vegetation (such as treefall gaps, stream edges, and bamboo thickets).

It is known from only two sites, "in the Cordillera de Colán, Amazonas, and in Abra Patricia, San Martín".

[1] Curiously, its range almost exactly matches that of the long-whiskered owlet (Xenoglaux loweryi), whose type specimen was collected at the same site as that of the antpitta.

What is believed to be the ochre-fronted antpitta's song is "a single whistled note, given every 6–15 sec: a rising-falling wheeu?".

"The remaining areas of suitable habitat are being cleared for timber, agriculture and to secure ownership of the land.

Clearing of forest, primarily for agriculture, is [a] known threat near both of the sites at which Ochre-fronted Antpitta occurs.
