The Olive-backed Manakin is a small, relatively plain Piprid, characterized by its olive-green back and yellowish underparts. Both sexes are similar.
Where to spot
Inhabits humid lowland and foothill forests in various parts of the Amazon basin, including eastern Ecuador, Peru, and parts of Brazil and Bolivia.
How to spot
Scan the mid-story and sub-canopy of humid forests. Its plain appearance means careful observation of subtle color variations and listening for its calls are important.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, often joining mixed-species flocks. Observable year-round in its resident range.

Unlike many brightly colored manakins, this species relies more on its subtle plumage and unique vocalizations for communication and identification.
