Urrao Antpitta (Grallaria urraoensis)/Fenwick’s Antpitta (Grallaria fenwickorum)
Dusky Starfrontlet Reserve nabij Urrao, Colombia. Endeem.

[The Urrao Antpitta or Fenwick's Antpitta (Grallaria urraoensis or fenwickorum) is a highly threatened species of bird found in the understory of cloud forest in the Andean highlands of Colombia. Its description has caused considerable controversy.[1] The first published description used the scientific name Grallaria fenwickorum (and English name Fenwick's Antpitta); shortly afterward, a second description using the name Grallaria urraoensis was published. The editors of the latter recognized that the name likely was a junior synonym,[2] but others have questioned if the first description was valid,[3] and various authorities, including the International Ornithological Congress (followed here for English-language names), have adopted G. urraoensis. Antioquia Antpitta has been suggested as an English-language name compromise.(Wikipedia)]

Leuk ter illustratie bij de Lombok Scops-Owl.
Redelijke foto gezien de duisternis rond die voerbak!

Dit is nu precies de soort chaos die er ontstaat als jullie niet naar George Sangster luisteren. (Dit keer ben ik serieus: dat moet ik er altijd bij vermelden van Wietze!).
