Ground-antbirds (Formicariidae)
Striated Antthrush (Chamaeza nobilis) - HBW 8, p. 705
French: Tétéma strié
German: Weißkehl-Ameisendrossel
Spanish: Tovacá Noble
Other common names: Noble Antthrush
Taxonomy: Chamæza nobilis Gould, 1855, Chamicuros, Peru.
Race fulvipectus, which differs vocally from other races, possibly a separate species; racial identity of birds from EC Amazonian Brazil (R Purús E to R Madeira), however, is uncertain; further study needed. Three subspecies recognized.
Subspecies and Distribution:
- rubida J. T. Zimmer, 1932 - N of R Amazon in SE Colombia, E Ecuador and NE Peru; presumably also in immediately adjacent W Brazil.
- nobilis Gould, 1855 - S of R Amazon from E Peru (S from Huallaga Valley) E to WC Brazil (E to at least R Purús, probably to R Madeira) and S to extreme NW Bolivia.
- fulvipectus Todd, 1927 - NC Brazil at Santarem, left bank of R Tapajós; probably also including birds W to R Madeira and possibly those S to N Rondônia.
