Slender antbird  (Rhopornis ardesiacus)

This fairly large, grey antbird occurs in a small area of dry forest in Brazil. The male has ashy-grey plumage that is slightly paler on the underparts, with a distinctive black, triangular patch on the throat. The wings and the long, graduated tail are blackish-grey, and the wing feathers are finely edged in white. The female has paler underparts than the male and can also be distinguished by the russet colouring on the top of the head and back of the neck. The irises of this bird are bright red (2).
