This terrestrial antthrush is recorded in lowland Amazonian forest in Peru. PeruAves describes it as rare and associates it with terra firme, or relatively flood-free forest. This entry limits its account to Peruvian records.
It is about 22 cm long, with brown upperparts, a pale line behind the eye, tawny lores, a white throat, and scalloped markings below.
The Peru account calls it rare and associates it with lowland terra firme forest. It gives no detailed feeding or breeding information, so none is inferred here.
