The Striated Grasswren is a medium-sized grasswren distinguished by its extensive streaking over rufous-brown plumage. It is a secretive inhabitant of arid Australian scrub.
Where to spot
Widespread in spinifex grasslands, mallee, and heathlands across arid and semi-arid inland Australia.
How to spot
Walk slowly and quietly through suitable habitat, scanning the base of dense vegetation. They are more likely to run than fly when disturbed. Listen for their soft, high-pitched calls.
When to spot
Active year-round, typically foraging on the ground or low in vegetation during the day, especially in cooler periods.

This species is remarkably camouflaged, blending perfectly with the spinifex and mallee undergrowth of its habitat, making it incredibly difficult to spot unless it moves.
