Klages's Antwren is a small, inconspicuous antwren endemic to a specific region of the Amazon. It inhabits the mid-story of humid lowland forests, often in association with mixed-species flocks.
Where to spot
Restricted to the middle and lower Rio Tapajós region in central Amazonian Brazil.
How to spot
Look in the mid-canopy of tall, humid forests, particularly along river corridors. It often joins mixed-species flocks, and its presence can sometimes be inferred from the flock's activity and calls.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Best sought during early mornings when most active.
