Bolivian slaty antshrike


The Bolivian slaty antshrike is a species of bird in the family Thamnophilidae. It is found in Bolivia, extreme southwest Brazil, and far northern Paraguay. It was previously included in the widespread slaty antshrike, but following the split, this scientific name is now restricted to the northern slaty antshrike.
It occurs at low levels in forest and woodland; especially in places with dense growth.
The Bolivian slaty antshrike was described by the Austrian ornithologist August von Pelzeln in 1868 and given its current binomial name Thamnophilus sticturus.
