Where to spot
Endemic to New Guinea, found in tropical lowland and hill rainforests with dense undergrowth and rich leaf litter.
How to spot
Listen for persistent rustling sounds in the deep leaf litter on the forest floor. Remain quiet and scan the ground very carefully, as its plumage provides excellent camouflage.
