Spotted
A distinctive tapaculo named for its rufous-colored rump and flanks. It is a secretive ground-dweller of the undergrowth in humid temperate forests.
Where to spot
Endemic to the humid temperate forests and dense bamboo thickets of southern Chile and adjacent southwestern Argentina.
How to spot
Listen for its characteristic, often rapid, chattering or trilling calls. It is extremely shy and difficult to see; focus on detecting it by sound and then waiting patiently near the source in dense cover.
When to spot
Most active and vocal during early morning and late afternoon. Can be observed year-round in its specific forest habitat.

Its bright rufous rump is a key field mark that helps distinguish it from other tapaculos, though it's often hard to see due to its skulking habits.
