The Duida woodcreeper (Lepidocolaptes duidae) is a species of bird in the subfamily Dendrocolaptinae of the ovenbird family Furnariidae. It is found in Brazil, Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela, and possibly Colombia. Until the 2010s what is now the Duida woodcreeper was considered a subspecies of Lepidocolaptes albolineatus, which was then called the lineated woodcreeper. Starting at that time all but the lineated's nominate subspecies were split from it, eventually resulting in the Duida woodcreeper (L. duidae), the Inambari woodcreeper (L. fatimalimae), the dusky-capped woodcreeper (L. fuscicapillus), and a monotypic L. albolineatus which was renamed the Guianan woodcreeper.
The Duida woodcreeper is monotypic. The Duida woodcreeper is 17 to 19 cm (6.7 to 7.5 in) long; males weigh 24 to 25 g (0.85 to 0.88 oz). It is a smallish, slim, woodcreeper with a slim decurved bill. The sexes have the same plumage. Adults' face, crown, and nape are dusky brown with few or no spots on the crown. Their back and wing coverts are dark russet-brown, and their rump, wings, and tail rufous-chestnut with blackish brown tips on the primaries. Their throat is plain... Wikipedia →

Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Duida Woodcreeper sighting in Yasuní National Park on a given day, based on 148 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 264th most-seen of the 533 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March, June–September and November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Duida Woodcreeper in Yasuní National Park on a given day, against under 5% in April–May, October and December–February, the lowest months.
Between 6 and 9 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Duida Woodcreeper sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Yasuní National Park, in our data
Yasuní National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Duida Woodcreeper sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Furnariidae
The closest relatives of the Duida Woodcreeper that you can see in Yasuní National Park (family Furnariidae, Ovenbirds and Woodcreepers) are Buff-throated Woodcreeper (about 30%), Cinnamon-throated Woodcreeper (about 10%) and Striped Woodcreeper (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Duida Woodcreeper is recorded against all the birds logged in Yasuní National Park (148 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
