The striped treehunter (''Thripadectes holostictus'') is a species of bird in the Furnariidae family with a dusky-brown coloring with prominent buff streaking on the wings, throat, and breast. It is found in humid to wet montane forests that range locally in the Andes from west Venezuela to west Bolivia (Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela) most often at elevations of 1500–2500 m. It is most often mistaken for and with the larger flammulated treehunter due to many physical and behavioral similarities. ==Taxonomy== The striped treehunter belongs to the order Passeriformes in the family Furnariidae. Passeriformes encompasses more than half of the known avian species which are known as perching birds. The Furnariidae are ovenbirds which are native to Central America and South America which are a diverse group of insectivores known for their "oven-like" nests. The genus Thripadectes contains six close relatives of the striped treehunter. There are three subspecies: *''Thripadectes holostictus holostictus'' *''Thripadectes holostictus moderatus'' *''Thripadectes holostictus striatidorsus'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Striped treehunter」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
