| This sub-species D. c. concolor has virtually no barring which is such a prominent feature of the nominate
and most other sub-species to the extent that it has been treated by some authorities as a separate species. However, because of vocal and
morphological similarities it is now generally treated as a weakly barred sub-species of Amazonian Barred Woodcreeper Dendrocolaptes certhia.
It also has a redder bill than the nominate.
Note that the Amazonian Barred Woodcreeper is distributed in a total of 5 sub-species throughout the Amazon and most of the Orinoco Basins. |
