Habitat
The spotted Antpitta is typically found in mature forests, favoring environments that remain relatively undisturbed. This species thrives in areas with dense undergrowth, such as those around fallen trees and alongside streams within humid terra firme and gallery forests. It has a strong affinity for the forest floor and less frequently occupies more open understory areas. Spotted Antpitta tends to avoid habitats that have been heavily altered by human activity and may not return to regrown forests for many years after such disturbances.
