The bicolored antbird (Gymnopithys bicolor) is a species of bird in the family Thamnophilidae. It is found in Honduras south to Panama, western Colombia and Ecuador. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest.
It is dark brown with a white belly and grey and black facial markings.
The bicolored antbird was described by the American amateur ornithologist George Newbold Lawrence in 1863 and given the binomial name Pithys bicolor.[2]
There are five recognised subspecies:[3]
The bicolored antbird was formerly considered as conspecific with the white-cheeked antbird. They were split into separate species based on the results of a genetic study published in 2007 that found that the white-cheeked antbird was more similar to the rufous-throated antbird than it was to the bicolored antbird.[4][5]
