Chachapoyas Antpitta Grallaria gravesi

Rotund bird with long legs and a short tail, endemic to the eastern Andes of northern Peru. Plumage is mostly brown with an orange tinge to the underparts. Very similar to Chestnut Antpitta, but found at higher elevations and has a different voice. Vocalizations include a “pit-grrrr” with a dry, purring quality, repeated over and over, and a rising series of vibrating whistles. Inhabits understory of high elevation cloud forest, and usually stays on the ground except when singing. It was described as a new species in 2020, and was previously considered a form of what used to be called Rufous Antpitta.
