Description
Habitat
Biome: Terrestrial
Ecology: This species has been collected and sighted in lowland forest
or forest edge to at least 400 m
and, possibly, 1,000 m 3,8,9. One was seen feeding on a Chestnut-bellied Monarch Monarcha castaneiventris10. Its ecology is poorly known and its niche separation
from A. albogularis is unknown, but its shorter wings and tail and longer
legs
suggest that it is better adapted to interior forest7.[1]
