Inhabits humid montane forests on the eastern Andean slopes of Peru and Bolivia at 1,000–2,500 m elevation. Forages on the forest floor in pairs or small groups for seeds and invertebrates. Least Concern; restricted to Andean cloud forest but broadly distributed with stable populations in protected areas.

Dark-backed Wood-quail

A medium-sized New World quail (~320 g) of family Odontophoridae, with a dark brown back and rufous underparts. Inhabits humid forest on both slopes of the Andes in western Ecuador and Colombia below 1,500 m elevation. Forages on the forest floor for seeds, invertebrates, and fallen fruits.
