About the Inambari Woodcreeper

The Inambari woodcreeper (Lepidocolaptes fatimalimae) is a species of bird in the subfamily Dendrocolaptinae of the ovenbird family Furnariidae. It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, and Peru. The Inambari woodcreeper was described in 2013 as part of the reevaluation of Lepidocolaptes albolineatus, which was then called the lineated woodcreeper. Starting in the early 2010s, all but the lineated's nominate subspecies were split from it, eventually resulting in recognition of the Inambari woodcreeper (which had not been known as a subspecies), the Duida woodcreeper (L. duidae), the dusky-capped woodcreeper (L. fuscicapillus), and a monotypic L. albolineatus which was renamed the Guianan woodcreeper.

The Inambari woodcreeper's specific epithet honors Fátima Lima, manager of bird collections at the Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi. The Inambari woodcreeper is monotypic. The Inambari woodcreeper is 17 to 19 cm (6.7 to 7.5 in) long and weighs about 31 to 35 g (1.1 to 1.2 oz). It is a smallish, slim, woodcreeper with a slim decurved bill. The sexes have the same plumage. Adults' face, crown, and nape are dark russet-brown with few or no spots on the... Wikipedia →
