Clibanornis rubiginosus (Ruddy Foliage-gleaner)

Check out cinnamomeigula!!! Furnariids are just incredible. And this foothill montane reddish beast certainly is one fantastic example. Santiago Claramunt certainly would agree with me on this. This polytypic species is proposed to be transferred to the genus Clibanoris (subgenus Hylocryptus) by Claramunt et al. (2013). Additional taxonomic work on this bird is badly needed.
