The White-lored Antpitta is a lowland Amazonian bird with conspicuous white marks before and behind the eye. Records cover southeastern Colombia, eastern Ecuador, and northern Peru.
The head is dark slaty gray, with a white loral patch and a white triangular mark behind the eye. The back is dark olive-brown; the buffy ochre breast has dark streaks, and the center of the belly is white.
It usually occurs alone in dense undergrowth at forest edges, in riparian forest, or in overgrown clearings. It walks or hops over the ground and fallen logs while foraging.
