Star-chested Treerunner

The star-chested treerunner is 13 to 15 cm (5.1 to 5.9 in) long and weighs 21 to 22 g (0.74 to 0.78 oz). The sexes have the same plumage. Adults have a wide but indistinct dull rufescent brownish supercilium, dull reddish brown ear coverts, and a more rufescent moustacial area. Their crown is dark reddish brown and their upperparts slightly paler. Their wing coverts are reddish brown, their primary coverts dark fuscous, and their flight feathers dark fuscous with dark rufescent edges. Their tail is dark reddish brown; the ends of the tail feathers lack barbs, giving a spiny appearance. Voice: Though both xeno-canto and the Cornell Lab of Ornithology's Macaulay Library have several recordings of star-chested treerunner vocalizations, the species' song has not been described in words.
