Spot-throated Babbler

Pellorneum albiventre

Shy, skulky, frustratingly difficult to see, and not much to look at if seen well. A species of foothill and submontane open forest and forest edge, usually tucked well away in dense, tangled undergrowth. Brown overall with a pale, faintly streaked throat. East Indian subspecies has a white belly, while others are unmarked brown all over. Very similar to Buff-breasted Babbler, which has a clean, unstriped pale throat and is more slender in its build. Spot-throated’s song is musical and variable, usually incorporating clear whistles, lower chirrs and chatters, and imitations of other species. Calls are usually composed of low chattering or clicking notes.

Golden-browed Chat-Tyrant

Golden-browed Chat-Tyrant

Silvicultrix pulchella

Small, attractive flycatcher found in humid forest along the east slope of the Andes. Eyebrow is thick and yellow at the base of the bill, becoming thin and white behind the eye, and it also has bold, rusty wingbars. Similar to wing-barred races of Crowned Chat-Tyrant, but white part of eyebrow is shorter and thinner. Also very similar to Jelski’s Chat-Tyrant, but yellow part of eyebrow is slightly larger, and the two species are not known to overlap. Inhabits forest understory and easy to overlook if not vocalizing. Typical song is a high, fast trill that briefly goes up in pitch before steadily descending.

Araripe Manakin

Araripe Manakin

Chiroxiphia bokermanni

Strikingly beautiful white manakin with a red crown and black tail and flight feathers. Females are olive-green, paler below; note the short crest above the bill. Has a tiny geographic range on the borders of the Araripe Plateau, where it is found in woodland near water. Has a pleasant call “guru-uí”, similar to Helmeted Manakin calls.

Red-fronted Barbet

Red-fronted Barbet

Tricholaema diademata

A medium-sized black-and-white barbet. Note the red patch above the bill and the white eyebrow and breast. Immatures lack the red patch above the bill. There is some geographical variation, mainly in the amount of spotting on the underparts. Found in dry woodland and savanna. Similar to Spot-flanked and Black-throated Barbets, but easily separated by the lack of a black throat patch. The vocalizations are a long, descending series of hoots and a nasal “yank” note.
