Spotted
A small and distinctive antpitta, named for the striking 'scalloped' pattern on its breast, formed by dark feather edges. It is endemic to the coastal mountains of Venezuela.
Where to spot
Endemic to the humid montane forests and cloud forests of the Coastal Range (Cordillera de la Costa) in northern Venezuela.
How to spot
Listen for its high-pitched, often repeated calls. Observing it requires extreme patience and quiet persistence in dense undergrowth, as it tends to stay hidden on or very near the forest floor.
When to spot
Most active and vocal during early morning and late afternoon. Can be observed year-round in its specific montane forest habitat.
The unique scalloped pattern on its chest makes it easily identifiable among other small antpittas, if a clear view can be obtained.
