Ovenbirds (Furnariidae)
Campo Miner (Geositta poeciloptera) - HBW 8, p. 241
French: Géositte des campos
German: Camposerdhacker
Spanish: Minero Brasileño
Taxonomy: Anthus poecilopterus Wied, 1830, “Inner Campos Geraës of Brazil” = Minas Gerais-Bahia border.
Often placed in a monotypic genus Geobates on account of slightly smaller size, shorter tail and bill, and bright cinnamon axillaries, but otherwise similar to current congeners in behaviour and voice. Plumage features and lowland distribution suggest related to G. cunicularia. Monotypic.
Distribution: Interior Brazil (locally from C Mato Grosso, S Goiás and C Bahia S to C Minas Gerais, São Paulo and N Paraná) and E Bolivia (extreme NE Santa Cruz).
