ID tip
The Amazonian inezia is about 12 cm (4.7 in) long and weighs 7 to 8 g (0.25 to 0.28 oz). The sexes have the same plumage. Adults of the nominate subspecies have a brownish olive to olive crown with a duskier lower edge. Their face is mostly olive to yellowish olive with a wide white supercilium, thin white broken eye-ring "spectacles", and a dusky line through the eye. Their back and rump are brownish olive to olive. Their wings are dusky with white outer edges on the flight feathers and tips of the wing coverts; the latter show as two wing bars that sometimes appear as rows of spots. Voice: What is thought to be the male Amazonian inezia's song is a "clear double note which is repeated several times at a pace of about 1.2‒1.7/s: pee-chew..pee-chew..pee-chew...". The apparent female song is a "rattled double or triple note which is repeated several times at a pace of about 1.5‒2/s: kit-up..kit-up..kit-up.. or kit-tr-up..kit-tr-up..kit-tr-up..". Pairs often sing in duet.
