The Peruvian antpitta (Grallaricula peruviana) is a Near Threatened 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).

Adult males have a rufous-cream loral patch, a whitish partial eyering, and a white "moustache" with a black line below it on an otherwise brown face.

Both sexes have a dark chestnut iris, a blackish or grayish bill with a dull yellowish green tip, and pale pinkish gray legs and feet.

Its core range extends from central Morona-Santiago Province in Ecuador south into Peru as far as the Maranon River in the Department of Cajamarca.

[1] The Peruvian antpitta's diet is not known in detail but includes insects, other invertebrates, and small frogs.

"The only threat known to this species is the loss and degradation of its forested habitat for conversion to agriculture and cattle pasture, mining operations and logging.

[4][5] "[I]t appears that this species is confined to mature forest, often close to riparian areas, and any activities which threaten such habitat within their range are likely threats.
