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.
