The Rufous-and-white Wren is a striking wren species of Central and South America, characterized by its bold rufous upperparts and contrasting pure white underparts. It is a vocal resident of humid forests.
Where to spot
Inhabits humid lowland and foothill forests, forest edges, and mature secondary growth, from southern Mexico south to western Ecuador.
How to spot
Look for a medium-sized wren with a bold rufous back and white belly. Listen for its loud, ringing, and often duet song. It frequently forages in dense undergrowth but may perch prominently to sing.
When to spot
A year-round resident. Most active and vocal during the early morning and late afternoon.

Its 'rufalbus' specific epithet directly translates to 'rufous-white', perfectly describing its distinct bicolored plumage.
