This ground-foraging antbird was documented in a French Guiana breeding study. The paper notes a throat-color difference between the sexes and records birds searching leaf litter in humid mature forest.
The study describes the male throat as black and the female throat as rufous.
In humid mature forest in French Guiana, the birds foraged on the ground on slopes, turning through dead leaf litter.
