The Narrow-billed Antwren is a small, range-restricted antwren found in the dry, rocky woodlands of eastern Brazil. It is characterized by its slender bill and dull plumage.
Where to spot
Endemic to the semi-arid Caatinga biome of eastern Brazil, particularly in Bahia and Minas Gerais states.
How to spot
Search in dense, dry scrub and rocky areas with sparse trees. It can be shy, so quiet observation and listening for its calls are essential. Look for its slender bill, which gives it its name.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Best observed during early morning when active.

This species is named after Hermann von Ihering, a German-Brazilian zoologist. Its specialized diet of insects gleaned from dry vegetation reflects its adaptation to arid habitats, where it probes into crevices for prey.
