The Blackish-grey Antshrike is a medium-sized antbird with dark blackish-gray plumage in the male, white wing bars, and a strong hooked bill. It inhabits dense river-island vegetation, bamboo thickets, and flooded forests in Amazonia, from Brazil to Colombia and Ecuador. It forages in pairs through dense undergrowth, hunting insects and small invertebrates.
