About These Birds
Black-bellied Antwren
The Black-bellied Antwren is a small insectivorous bird of the cerrado and caatinga scrublands of central and eastern Brazil, with the male showing black underparts contrasting with white-streaked black upperparts. It frequents dense low scrub, thickets, and the margins of gallery forests. Pairs forage actively in the understory, gleaning insects and spiders from leaves and stems.
