Rondonia warbling antbird

The Rondônia warbling antbird (Hypocnemis ochrogyna) is a species of bird in the family Thamnophilidae. Until recently, it was considered a subspecies of the Guianan warbling antbird (Hypocnemis cantator), but based on vocal differences and to a lesser degree differences in plumages they are now treated as separate species.[2][3] As presently defined, the Rondonia warbling antbird is monotypic.[4]
