The Red-bellied Antbird is a visually striking species, named for the rich rufous-red underparts that contrast sharply with its darker upperparts. Males are blackish-grey above, while females are more uniform rufous.
Where to spot
Found in the understory of humid lowland forests across the western and central Amazon basin.
How to spot
Look for them hopping on the forest floor or perched low in dense vegetation. While they can attend army ants, they also forage independently. Their distinctive coloration helps in identification.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most active during the early morning and late afternoon.

This species is known for its dramatic sexual dimorphism, with the female's entirely rufous plumage being quite different from the male's two-toned appearance.
