| Urrao Antpitta (Grallaria urraoensis)/Fenwick’s Antpitta (Grallaria fenwickorum) Dusky Starfrontlet Reserve nabij Urrao, Colombia. Endeem. [The Urrao Antpitta or Fenwick's Antpitta (Grallaria urraoensis or fenwickorum) is a highly threatened species of bird found in the understory of cloud forest in the Andean highlands of Colombia. Its description has caused considerable controversy.[1] The first published description used the scientific name Grallaria fenwickorum (and English name Fenwick's Antpitta); shortly afterward, a second description using the name Grallaria urraoensis was published. The editors of the latter recognized that the name likely was a junior synonym,[2] but others have questioned if the first description was valid,[3] and various authorities, including the International Ornithological Congress (followed here for English-language names), have adopted G. urraoensis. Antioquia Antpitta has been suggested as an English-language name compromise.(Wikipedia)] Waargenomen tijdens de Colombian Endemics Birding Tour van Multicolor Birding onder leiding van Pablo Florez. |
