On dendrocincla tyrannina: Morphology, behavior and conservation of a shy lek-type insectivore

The Tyrannine Woodcreeper (Dendrocincla tyrannina, Dendrocolaptidae) of northern Andean cloud forests is solitary, like the rest of the genus, and wanders in the epiphyte-laden forest understory, depending partly on hard-to-find swarms of army ants and on understory flocks to flush insects. It is wary and silent, hiding after flying short distan ces for prey or gleaning it from moss or trunks. As los s of sleep Andean wet forests where the woodcreepers live resulls in gretaer danger from earthquakes, study and tourism are preferable to settlements.
