Where to spot
Eastern slope of the Andes, from northern Peru south through Bolivia to northwestern Argentina.
How to spot
Search in the dense understory and bamboo thickets of humid montane forests. Listen for its distinctive, often accelerating trill calls, which are crucial for location in dense foliage.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Best observed during early morning activity.
This species is named after Dr. W. Behn, a German naturalist, underscoring the contributions of early explorers to the documentation of Neotropical biodiversity and the continued process of scientific discovery.
