- Lepidocolaptes fatimalimae
Identification
A rather small woodcreeper, with the slender and slightly curved bill that is typical of the genus. The combination of long pale streaks covering its underparts from the throat to the vent and virtually unmarked upperparts should make it unmistakable in range (the very similar Duida Woodcreeper is found North of the Amazon).
Distribution
In South America, Western Amazonia, south of the Amazon: Eastern Peru south to Bolivia and east to Brazil west of the Madeira River
Taxonomy
This is a monotypic species[1].
It was described as recently as 2013, previously it was considered part of the Lineated Woodcreeper.
Habitat
Found mainly in lowlands but also in foothill forest, reported up to 1500 masl in central Peru.
Behaviour
Not particularly shy but discrete, it is generally found at higher levels in the forest, often with mixed flocks.
