Feeding Habits
Yellow-breasted Antwren feeds primarily on a variety of insects and likely spiders. It forages actively in pairs or groups, often with mixed-species flocks, employing short hops and deliberate pauses to glean prey from foliage, outer branches, and mid-storey vines, occasionally hover-gleaning and seldom follows army ants.
Habitat
The yellow-breasted Antwren typically inhabits the subcanopy layer of humid montane evergreen forests and adjacent forest borders. These environments generally feature dense vegetation and a high humidity level that supports their foraging and nesting behaviors. The species is found across broader tropical regions with these habitat characteristics.
