The white-bellied seedsnipe is 26.5 to 29 cm (10 to 11 in) long and weighs about 310 to 400 g (11 to 14 oz). The sexes are essentially alike. Males' upperparts and breast have an intricate scallop pattern of buff, cinnamon, and black; their chin and belly are white. Females have a somewhat less sharp division between the breast and belly than males. Juveniles are very similar to adults but are slightly paler and have somewhat heavier scalloping. Voice: The white-bellied seedsnipe's flight calls are "an excited-sounding 'tu-whit tu-whit' or 'too-ee too-ee...', given continually."
