Where to spot
Endemic to a restricted area of northwestern Venezuela, primarily in the states of Lara and Falcón. Inhabits dry thorn forests, scrub, and arid riparian areas.
How to spot
Look for it foraging on the ground in dense dry scrub. Its relatively plain, streaky brown plumage makes it blend in. Listen for its simple song.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Observation can be challenging due to its localized range and often dense habitat. Breeding typically occurs during the rainy season.
This species is named after the Tocuyo River in Venezuela, where it was first discovered and primarily resides.
