The Rio Negro Gnatcatcher is a small, inconspicuous gnatcatcher native to the Amazonian region, often associated with specific forest types. Like its relatives, it is an agile insectivore.
Where to spot
Found in humid lowland forests, often near rivers and in sandy-soil forests (campinaranas) in the Rio Negro basin of Amazonian Brazil.
How to spot
Look for small, gray birds moving quickly through the subcanopy and mid-story. Its calls are high-pitched and can be a good indicator of its presence in the dense foliage.
When to spot
Present year-round in its habitat. Early mornings are typically the most active times for foraging and vocalizations.

This species' habitat preference for specific forest types, particularly those along blackwater rivers like the Rio Negro, makes it a specialized resident.
